In pittsburgh pa the salary is pretty low, starting in low 80s. Lifestyle all depends on specialty but I can tell you with 7 years experience I work 9-5 with no holidays, on call or weekends and make around 96k a year

Washington DC, great city with so much to do. New grad salary was 90k (low balled in my opinion). Switched hospital systems and bumped to 110k with my current job (there are 4 major hospital systems in the area so lots of opportunity for this). It’s been 2.5 years at this job and just bumped to 121k with the annual cost of living/performance based review. Cost of living is high but if you negotiate well you can make a good living here.

Hello Guys,

I am in a super good position at Jellyfish as a Director with a good room in terms of growth. Great responsibilities, work life balance and I strongly love my job. However, there is an opportunity to join Google Dublin as an Agency Development Manager (level 4) with strong salary, new challenges, different role and responsibilities etc. I HAVE A STRONG DOUBT about a trade off: is better to have a strong margin of growth and a good position or join Google with the above conditions?

I am a first year who just started a couple of months ago and I am literally confused all the time. I did some small work for two partners and they loved it, so put me on new deals but the mid levels I am staffed with absolutely hate the work I do. One said the work I did was laughable. I felt bed because I spent over 25 hours on this. I wouldn’t be very bothered but the other Associates in my class are killing it. So I just feel dumb all the time.

Hello all,

I'm a PA in the PNW working for a private group staffing ED's in several hospitals. Recently the group has asked the PA's to take on a couple new roles (triaging and rapid track from triage i.e. straightforward ESI 4, 5). With these changes the PA's are considering asking for increased pay in the form of an addition of a COLA (cost of living adjustment) to our normal salary. Was wondering if any other PA's in the ED have these in their contracts and at what rate.

-Thanks
