ST Poll — How much more would you want to get paid to basically do your same job at another company? 10%?

Posted by znufrii May 3 '24, 11:18

I have a feeling that the job description a recruiter just sent me is more junior than my current position, and my ask would be right near the top of their posted range. Would mean commuting into Philadelphia instead of Wilmington, which is probably a wash with traffic.

Responses:

I can't think of another place I would want to work. That's more valuable to me than the money or benefits. - Max May 3, 14:01
It’d have to be a lot. I have unlimited time off and solid benefits. - Dark Callisto 🦊 May 3, 12:48
I would jump for the same amount of money and a $20ish k sign on if PTO were offered. no prob. -- nm - 🏳️‍🌈 mandy chem 🏳️‍🌈 May 3, 12:23
Significantly more. The retirement match and PTO policies are too good. 30% would start to get my attention. -- nm - Baron Kills World May 3, 11:49 6
- I'm in this camp. No way am I going back to 3 weeks vacation - Pippy Shark May 3, 11:54 5
  - I’d be getting the same PTO I have now, and other benefits are comparable. -- nm - znufrii May 3, 12:26
  - jeebuz. I maxed out at 4 at 15 years. -- nm - oblique May 3, 12:23
  - Oh my god my kingdom for three. -- nm - amandaphone May 3, 12:09 2
    - Right? - LFG May 3, 12:10 1
      - our delivery people have unlim as long as they hit goals. internal people are at the discretion of their exec. -- nm - 🏳️‍🌈 mandy chem 🏳️‍🌈 May 3, 12:22
Unfortunately my job doesn't really exist in the private sector. The closest thing would be working for a disability attorney's office or an insurance - sycor May 3, 11:40
Depends. Same size company, same ethics? I wouldn't talk to them for less than 50% more. - Beryllium May 3, 11:30
Another company would mean I am not the owner, so I will say 100%. -- nm - LFG May 3, 11:29
25-30% which would never happen. I am in a good spot. -- nm - Strongbad May 3, 11:25
It's never the same job - oblique May 3, 11:25 5
- True -- (edited) - znufrii May 3, 11:27 4
  - In house could have advantages especially for other opportunities in the organization depending on how big it is -- nm - oblique May 3, 11:30 3
    - it never hurts to take a meeting to find out more about a new opportunity -- nm - Pippy Shark May 3, 12:08 2
      - I need to keep telling myself this instead of convincing myself of reasons why I shouldn’t/wouldn’t get it -- nm - znufrii May 3, 12:12 1
        
        (I’m also very curious to find out if this is a position at a former client. I don’t think so but there is a possibility.) -- nm - znufrii May 3, 12:22
I've turned down substantially more because I love where I am. -- nm - David May 3, 11:19
