Not a ton of data to support this, but every time I think about leaving for big tech I’m disappointed by the initial salary discussions, and especially disappointed by the salary trajectory.

LEK does pay particularly well though, and have particularly bad hours. So it’s a trade off for sure!

Interviewing at a dream company, and right from the first interview the recruiter told me we are way off on salary expectations. This was a little bit expected, as the role is requiring a few years less experience than I have and also in a much cheaper market. They already told me the salary range during this first call, but wondering if they like me enough and I get an offer, how I might approach negotiating for more. I would be making much less than I do now, but it is a dream company.

Hi all! I work at a nonprofit and am looking to leave the organization.

Is there a way to say “my current org doesn’t know I’m looking, so please treat my interest with discretion” that doesn’t raise red flags? Thanks!

How terrible would it be to continue pursuing other job opportunities even after you already accepted an offer? I applied to three different places around the same time but one was able to throw out an offer before the other two would even enter into second interviews. The other two will likely pay considerably more so I feel like it’d be a waste to decline them (if I even get another offer).
