Salary is good compared to other main contractors.

Salary - Excellent

Dislikes

Family benefits component provided for is not clarified in the offer. Once you join you will get to know, you will get that amount after you bring your family. So effectively, you will loose first 2, 3 months of this amount. Secondly, the agreed salary and provided salary will have a minor difference, and the justification is, this is as per their company pay structure and calculation, so you always loose 200 or 300 from your salary.

New Job, Higher Pay, Now I’m Feeling Awkward

I’ve been at my new job for about six months now, and everything’s been going great! I’m getting positive feedback from my manager, and I get along well with the team. The thing is, when I started, my salary offer ended up being much higher than the initial number discussed during my interview. I didn’t negotiate and just accepted the offer. So, fast forward to happy hour with the team, and the topic of salary comes up. I, unfortunately, shared what I’m making, and let’s just say... it didn’t sit well with the others who have been on the team for years and make less than me. They weren’t mad at me, but now I’m feeling a bit uncomfortable and unsure how to handle this situation. Has anyone had something like this happen? How did you deal with it? Let’s chat!
