I work as a temp at a financial services company is the Northeast region of the US. I am currently making $17/hr and, if I accept this offer, would be making $25/hr.
The offer letter contains the phrase admin/bookkeeper as the position and doesn't come with a Job Description. During negotiations, I asked for at least a rough draft of the job description so I can be prepared and understand the chain of command.
My would be boss, pushed back really hard, stating, “Because it's a new position and we're all sooo busy, it would be difficult to create that so quickly” and, “This is more of a 'learn as you go', and you'll be expected to float around on different projects, so it's all very fluid”
Is what I'm requesting unreasonable? Do their responses to me seem reasonable? Is this a red flag? If they say No to providing a Job Description, would still take the offer?
