Which stores give cost of living raises? I'm mostly asking about stores like Walmart, Target, Costco, you know, the big box stores that are always hiring.

Having worked at multiple big box stores, the answer is almost none. The granola bars get better raises than you do.

Walmart gives cost of living raises. But at most it's only 5% per year (sometimes you only get 1-4% or none). If you change positions they will strip that from you. 5% just isn't enough when everything else goes up by 15% per year.

Costco as far as I've seen

Maybe that's why they are always hiring

like

Costco gives a raise every 1050 hours worked. Starting wage in Canada is $19.50/hour. You make an extra $1/hr for "a scale" positions (cashier, forklift driver etc) top rate is over $30/hour for just general positions. They promote from within, and getting a supervisor position means instant top rate + $1.50/hr premium. Company paid benefits (50% coverage for part time, 80% for fulltime) plus life insurance, sick/disability benefits, with the option to increase coverage for a cost.

I’m waiting on an offer for what’s named IT Business Analyst but it’s also Salesforce Administrator work. The company is The Adecco group so they are fairly big. I have two years of Salesforce admin experience and in my interview they said my experience is perfect to what they are looking for

So my questions is, I think they are going to offer around 80k but I don’t think their going to be guaranteed bonuses with the offer. Should I negotiate a bonus to the salary or negotiate a higher salary?

Hi Fishes,

I was offered RSUs for the first time as part of my compensation. I think I understand the concept as such but there are a few intricacies I was looking to clarify. Could anyone let me know if my grant date is 9th nov, 2022 and vesting period is 1 year, will I get RSUs allotted at the price of stock on grant date or vest date (in this case 9th nov, 2023)? Happy to connect in DMs as well

Thank you for your time!

Hi,

Just started a new job less than a month ago in the tech sector. It was the industry I was fixated on when leaving for. However I realise that I don't think I can cope with the fast paced, lack of wlb, with no support - it's really impacting my mental health already....

I try to hide it from my boyfriend, but its impact is flowing into my personal life.
I feel like a failure, but recognise it might be beneficial to cut loss and quit. Has anyone been in this situation?

Any advice?
