This week I was approached by a recruiter for a contract role at Disney. They said the role was hybrid, but their definition of hybrid is Monday through Thursday and remote on Friday. I don’t really consider that to be hybrid.

The role was a mid-level project manager opportunity and they were offering at max $40 an hour.

Pause.

You want someone to come into the office every day at that rate?

I’m currently remote and making almost triple that.

Mind boggling.

The role actually sounded very interesting, but with all of the responsibilities listed compared to the pay offered, it demonstrated that they did not really value the person that they wanted to do the job.

I also saw the comment, basically saying that they didn’t understand these type of posts, because perhaps it seemed to them that I was turning my nose down, and that other people would be glad to be approached by the recruiter.

Understood. But as a recruiter when you’re reaching out to people, doing a little research to see what current level that person is at can help you better field some of the candidates.

With my years of experience, the role was a junior one and yes, the pay rate was lower than what I’m getting now and would expected this level so I don’t really think that’s turning my nose down at something.

Also, since the pandemic, professionals have decided to make important decisions about going into the office, and how often. The rate that you’re paying someone and the benefits that you’re giving them can help them to make that decision. That’s all I was saying.

This makes a lot of sense.

Da hell…😐…Disney know there are people who were laid off and would take what they are offering because it would be Disney on their resume….🙄

I hear you.
