If so, how did it go? Did you get it?

Yes, was told I had to wait

I wasn’t told no

Do you always ask for the max?

Certainly! In summary:
Research market rates. Know your worth and highlight your value. Consider the entire compensation package. Time your salary discussions appropriately. Express enthusiasm for the position. Be flexible in negotiations. Consider the company's situation. Phrase your request positively. Be ready to justify your desired salary.

I ask for my worth!


There was a floor tech under my management making just as much as I was.. how could we feel comfortable in a position of leadership when our employer don't feel we're important enough to be paid our due salaries.. instead they terminate us then fill our position with someone who would take the low pay for the same position.

I dont discuss pay with my colleagues..being responsible for making sure everyone gets paid you tend to see these things..

Imagine this scenario: You get the offer, but it's less than you were hoping for. You don't want the company to rescind the offer, but you also don't want to leave money on the table. What's the best way to go about this?

@Bill Branstetter, I think I would show nothing but gratitude for the position at first. Then I would be more than I thought I could be when I begin the position, and if, and only if, I felt worthy, I would ask to speak to the one that can increase my wages....

How did you approach it? Did you get the raise?

Minimum Wage Hike, Does It Matter to You?
According to an article in the WSJ, more than half of the states are set to raise their minimum wages. However, the effect of this may be subdued because most low wage workers are making more than minimum wage. Most employers in the hospitality and restaurant industries had to increase the pay for their workers above minimum wage to keep them from quitting during the pandemic.
Has this been true for you? Has your pay gone up? Are you making better money than before the pandemic?

Stay away from them they don’t #pay but want you to work for free # read the app’s reviews & online reviews these people are terrible#shiftkeyllc


As someone who has worked fully remote, hybrid, and in office, I would accept a lower salary for the flexibility to work fully remote. When I do work jobs that are on site, the commute takes a large portion of my free time and adds stress both physically and mentally. Reducing stress of any type usually results in greater productivity.
