Startup is not my intention. I have no entrepreneurship. But my situation pushed me to open my own business. My previous company has heavily restricted the structure and laid off employees. My salary decreased. I have 4 family members including myself. I have submitted almost 200 resumes, but the companies I submitted all have rejected me. I thought my career or resume is shit, so to prove my work i produced my own website and app as portfolio. I have done my best, but very afraid of the future

Just posting as a reminder to LEAVE that job (within a reasonable time 😂) and go where the money is!

My partner got a City of Toronto offer. Salary band is 104-121k. HR asked for his expectations and he said 115k. HR came back with a 106k offer stating nobody on the team makes that much so they cant offer it. Also said she is unsure if there is any wiggle room if any at all. I’ve looked at everyone on the team with the same titles salary on the sunshine list and the lowest I see is 121k. I assume there is an OT component of some sort but also can’t confirm. Thoughts? /negotiating advice?
