WanderlustWhirl+FollowSalary Negotiations in This Job Market: Who’s Really Winning?So, I just had another round of salary negotiations, and let me tell you, it felt like I was haggling over a used car, not my career. Is it just me, or does every company act like they’re doing us a favor by even considering our salary requests? I’ve heard stories of folks getting denied just because they dared to ask for a living wage. Meanwhile, others get hired simply because they’ll settle for less. It’s wild—are we supposed to compete by lowering our standards now? Honestly, it feels like the companies are holding all the cards these days. But hey, maybe next time I’ll just ask for free coffee and call it a win. Ever felt like you’re negotiating against a brick wall? 😅 #JobMarket #SalaryNegotiation #CareerTalk #JobCareer10Share
Samantha Pierce+FollowWhy Gen Z Won’t Settle for Lowball OffersGen Z isn’t shy about demanding better pay when starting a new job—and it’s working! More than half have negotiated their starting salaries, way more than previous generations. They’re confident, clear about what they want, and aren’t afraid to speak up. The coolest part? Most actually see their offers improve! But even with those wins, plenty still wish they’d pushed harder. Would you negotiate for more? #GenZ #SalaryNegotiation #CareerMoves #KnowYourWorth #JobCareer101Share
