Salary Story: I’m A Buyer In Los Angeles & Took A Pay Cut To Follow My Dreams
Not salary drop, but when I was discussing salary for my first entry level corporate job in 2013 they offered me slightly more money than I asked, which has never happened before. It was a very low salary in general, I asked for $32,000 and they offered me $35,000. The hiring manager told me, “I think I can actually do better,” which I in hindsight regret not doing more market research.I didn’t realize the strength in numbers.
. After discussing together, we all told our respective managers and it got bubbled up to the top. All of us were offered a $15,000 bonus with an 13-month retention agreement.The best way to jump salaries is to jump companies. Also, if a company is not able to get to your desired salary during the negotiation process, you can negotiate your sign on bonus to cover the difference in the desired salary for your first two years.
