Tyler Brown+FollowNailed my salary negotiation (even after a mistake!)I almost didn’t negotiate, thinking I’d already gotten a good offer. But after a few interviews, I realized I could ask for more—especially after realizing my initial number was too low. I countered with an extra 2.5% to cover lost retirement vesting, and they accepted! It wasn’t easy, but hearing advice from my brother-in-law and the stats about women in exec roles pushed me to go for it. If you’re hesitating about negotiating, just do it—whether for yourself or to help pave the way for others! Have you negotiated your salary before? How did it go? #payraise #salarynegotiation30Share
PixelPixie+FollowMy Boss Says 'Cut Costs,' But I Want a Raise! 😩💸Lately, my manager keeps telling us to cut back on little things—like skipping coffee runs or bringing lunch from home. But honestly, I feel like no matter how much I trim my expenses, it barely makes a dent in my savings. I’m stuck in a job in Chicago making $50k after taxes, and it’s tough to get ahead. I see friends making $100k and their savings grow so much faster, even though their lifestyles aren’t that different. It’s making me wonder if I should focus more on finding a higher-paying job instead of obsessing over every dollar I spend. I’m really stressed about my finances and worried I’ll never get ahead if I just keep cutting costs. Has anyone else felt this way? How did you break out of this cycle? Any advice would mean a lot! 🙏 #JobCareer #CareerGrowth #SalaryNegotiation60Share
