Base + 20% fibbing adjustment.

I make $150k btw.

Not bonus ... that varies. Likely base plus COLA.

The two are pretty much the same over here in my experience 🙁

+1 to the fibbing point. People who talk about their salary openly, are probably insecure about it if I had to guess.

In past experience, previous salary is the starting negotiation point. Discretionary isn't considered unless you're extremely senior and it's tied to company financials. I've always emphasized salary, with bonuses really being as described, a bonus.

I feel being open about salary is a very good thing. No company wants to pay you cent more than they have to. Honestly telling a company during an interview your current salary without knowing the range their willing to pay puts you at a huge disadvantage. I wish more people were open about salary for the very least to know if I got a good deal or screwed over

Hi! I have a quick question and could use some advice:

I have 1 job offer that is an hour away and pays 45k, after negotiations (Research Associate Position at a University) .

I have just interviewed for a position closer to home and a base salary of 65k, but haven’t heard back from them in about 2 days (He said he would make a decision by yesterday and I’ve reached out).
I have to decide on the first offer by Thursday but I haven’t heard back from the second yet. Thoughts on next move?

Should I complain to a firm's HR if the interviewers laughed at my answer during an interview?

Hi fishes,

Today I got an email from TCS to complete an ibegin registration. Whenever I login, it is asking me to enter PAN details and mail ID. If I give, it is giving a warning that my account is already present in ibegin and telling me to login with another email ID. As if I remember, one of the consultancy, used my PAN to register in ibegin but I’m unable to login since it is registered by their mail ID and my PAN.
