“Tell me your salary doesn’t meet the cost of living without actually telling me”

Recruiters and hiring managers will do anything to hide their non-competitive salaries. Any company with this or 30k-500k automatically go to the do not apply pile. Recruiting industry is a sham.

Those days aren’t quite gone, it’s just who takes those jobs and if they need to because they are still building skills, or if they get “tricked” into it because they haven’t become jaded enough to say “it’s all about the bass” salary that is.

Before I had the experience and skill set, I was working 12 hour days for $50k base and phantom uncapped commissions while at the same time hitting the food bank after work.

Costs go up 20-30% for inflation but your raise for “cost of living increase” is 2.6%

That’s generous.

They ask too much qualifications for something that even high school graduates can do. Salary that's enough to pay what you mandatorily owe to the government. You work your self to death just to get yourself to a better position after 10 years or more.

From Big4 Transparency: S1/MCOL/2YOE/FDD making $97k. Managers MCOL close to $150k.

very Selective jobs( MF PE and BB IBs) kinda blow these numbers out of the water... but for the more attainable exits like MM IB and and corporate development... considering wlb and pay, is the grass much greener?

“Job hopper” and “quiet quitting” are all schemes made up by boomers to make you think everything is the employees fault. When in reality people are just getting out of bad situations. Older companies do whatever they can to pay you the least amount and get the max work out of you. Except our generation will just leave amid we’re being mistreated, not complain for 35 years making 50k and 0 advancement.
