My roommate started working as a graphic designer for a local company. Her salary is $40K and she’s been working about 50 hours a week. I remember there is a law that requires salaries employees...

Is that why my starting salary was 48k? 😒 (2009)

No the actual law requiring OT pay is federal. Kicker was it was not indexed to inflation when passed so it was stuck at an impossibly low salary until 2016, which raised it through exec action to $47k. As mentioned, this has been reversed and therefore the threshold is once again whatever it was when the law was originally passed.

Also tell her that she should leave after 40 hours because of self respect. That work will still be there tomorrow.

Hello Fishes,

Recently I was promoted in my current org and got salary revision. Along with it I was giving interviews. Now after clearing all rounds company X has asked me to submit documents to move forward. I doubt company X will try to push back as I got a hike recently in my current org. How shall I handle company X??

Over the last three years my mfg company has had a lot of people leave and each time I take on the extra responsibility - from admin, payroll, benefits, compliance, safety, inventory and shipping. I literally do it all. And not only that, but I’ve eliminated and optimized a lot of wasteful processes in order to get it all done. I thought that it would all come with eventual pay increases since it saves the company over 300k in overhead. This whole time I should have been OE. I feel like a fool.

I received a job offer for a PM position with a base of $125K and a 10% bonus, fully remote and ok benefits. The parental leave is pretty bad, just FMLA and STD/LTD so the most I’d get is 60% of my salary for 12 weeks. I’ve cancelled most of my interviews except for one where the pay is $135K, 20% bonus, hybrid schedule, good benefits and 16 weeks fully paid parental leave. I’d like to start my family in a year or two - is it better to take the remote gig or the hybrid role with full paid leave?

What would be the in-hand salary for the below salary break up??

What is the partner compensation like at BDO? Base/equity as well as pension. I heard there is 5 years as fixed partner and then 10 as variable partner before you can earn pension. Say you make partner at 40, so can’t earn pension til 55. If you retire at 55 does that mean all you have is whatever you’ve contributed to 401k or otherwise saved? Or is there a lifetime salary if you’ve been partner a certain duration?

I really need advice/strategy for skill development, despite burn out and the weakened motivation. I am in a role that can, (in 2+ yrs), make me eligible to start at entry-level position in an area I want. I don't have 2 yrs.
