Don't take that job unless you negotiate PTO and benefits

Thank you

Depending on the duties, I'd say $35/hr for contract work with no benefits is fair. Also, if this is a remote position, in office these days would warrant more.

I recently had an initial interview for a technical recruiter position. The guy on the phone stated that this is not a 9-5 job and long hours are expected. I proceed to ask how much PTO is offered and he said that is not recommend within the first 6 months of working and the harder you work the more PTO you receive. From that conversation, I saw instant red flags. Any thoughts?
