No Comments on HR Fucked Up And Showed Me Pay Data.

Long story short: my job has a pay grade system. Today, an HR employee did something she is almost certainly not supposed to do and showed me the minimum, 5th percentile, 25th percentile, 50th percentile, 75th percentile, and maximum rates for my pay grade. I also found an old job posting for my position. Not only am I two full pay grades below what that ad lists, I'm in the 12th percentile for my actual pay grade. I am so tired of this shit.

Fixed it for ya.

The same people who say 5 dollar coffees and Netflix are unnecessary luxuries turn around and spend their money like this. Remember, you have to go without so that they can live like this

Lied and said I made 15k more during the interview. Their initial offer was 10% more than that. Negotiated another 10% and accepted.

Your honesty costs you money. You're either being taken advantage of or taking advantage of them. Lie, cheat and steal your way to a better life.
