$50k is a good start.

I started at $40k when I was fresh out of college in 2018, and then was bumped up to $65k when I got my second job in 2021. Promotion after that in late 2022 brought me to $80k.

To go from $40k to $80k has taken me 5 years. I think from here, though, growth should happen a little more quickly for me.

I have a question, I got a contract role through a recruiter. Initially the recruiter offered the hourly pay rate which was the minimum in my range. Now I got an offer from the company. Now without me asking her she increased the hourly wage to the maximum range I asked. Which makes me doubt if the company increased it or she knew the rate all along but gave me the lower rate ?

Hi folks,

If a person resigns on April month when yearly reviews are going to happen and bonus are being sent out.
So, can he get the performance bonus because he served the last whole year with dedication?

It would be helpful if managers can answer this because they are the people who approves or decline this request.
