Okay, Okay, Mandy, 23 00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:32,160 Speaker 4: who's our first person? 24 00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:36,280 Speaker 3: I love this question, Carl. Yes, I saw this question 25 00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:38,399 Speaker 3: on instain. I'm so glad that producer Sarah picked this 26 00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:41,560 Speaker 3: one out. Carl says, I love the podcast and what 27 00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:44,160 Speaker 3: you both are doing to empower our community. I just 28 00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:47,160 Speaker 3: started a new remote job in March that I enjoy 29 00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:50,559 Speaker 3: for a solid company with great benefits. I'm making eighty 30 00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:53,240 Speaker 3: five K, the most I've ever made in a low 31 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:56,960 Speaker 3: cost of living area. I've been getting recruiters sliding into 32 00:01:56,960 --> 00:01:59,880 Speaker 3: my dms on LinkedIn, and I finally decided to chat 33 00:01:59,880 --> 00:02:03,400 Speaker 3: with one. She has a role that's one hundred percent remote, 34 00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:06,800 Speaker 3: same industry for about one hundred and thirty five K 35 00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:10,040 Speaker 3: per year. The only issue is that it's a six 36 00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:14,240 Speaker 3: to twelve month contract attempt to hire role, so I 37 00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:17,000 Speaker 3: have the uncertainty of it. We're also building a house, 38 00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:19,520 Speaker 3: and I know that banks get a little bit weary 39 00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:22,640 Speaker 3: when there's big changes in a financial situation. What do 40 00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:25,519 Speaker 3: you think? Am I crazy for considering the move from 41 00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:29,760 Speaker 3: something reliable to something potentially uncertain. My initial thought is 42 00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:32,120 Speaker 3: don't worry until you get the offer. But my wheels 43 00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:36,920 Speaker 3: are already turning. Ooh, this is a juicy ooh, juicy juicy. 44 00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:39,239 Speaker 4: Although there is one huge component that makes me say, 45 00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:43,480 Speaker 4: sir Carl, but I'm gonna let you rock with it. 46 00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:46,560 Speaker 3: What you say, Mandra, No, tell me what what what 47 00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:47,160 Speaker 3: caught you? 48 00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:47,760 Speaker 2: What caught you? 49 00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:50,120 Speaker 4: A Carl story, the part that caught me everything else. 50 00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:51,679 Speaker 4: I'm like, Oh, you know, maybe i'd make the leap, 51 00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:53,519 Speaker 4: but building a house. 52 00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:57,600 Speaker 2: Carl, that makes me nervous. Now here's the thing. I've 53 00:02:57,639 --> 00:02:59,200 Speaker 2: never built a house. I do know. 54 00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:01,919 Speaker 4: Let's just say, if you were, you know, house shopping, 55 00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:04,840 Speaker 4: and you were like, I'm thinking about getting a mortgage, 56 00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:06,800 Speaker 4: this would literally be the worst thing you could possibly do. 57 00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:09,240 Speaker 2: If you switch jobs before. 58 00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:13,399 Speaker 4: You close, they're almost sure to be like you thought, Carl, bruh, 59 00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:18,160 Speaker 4: we gave you this loan based upon your current financial situation. 60 00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:21,360 Speaker 4: You have now changed it to one that makes us 61 00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:24,080 Speaker 4: feel a little nervy. Nervy, Like I'll give you an example. 62 00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:27,320 Speaker 4: So I make like significantly more than my husband. But 63 00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:29,720 Speaker 4: my husband has worked for where he works for for 64 00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:33,440 Speaker 4: the last like twenty nineteen years. When we were looking 65 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:36,560 Speaker 4: to get a mortgage, he actually was the one that 66 00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:37,960 Speaker 4: they were like, we don't want to talk to Siphany. 67 00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:40,960 Speaker 4: You're really cute. Well you cute with sure many years 68 00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:42,520 Speaker 4: of work at a solid job. 69 00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:43,160 Speaker 2: How you doing? 70 00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:46,680 Speaker 4: I was like, what I make a lot of money. 71 00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:49,160 Speaker 4: They're like, yeah, yeah, what's your shaky entrepreneurship. It's not 72 00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:52,000 Speaker 4: cute over there. So that's the part that just makes 73 00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:54,240 Speaker 4: me a little nervous, is that, I don't know, with 74 00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:56,360 Speaker 4: building a house, if you kind of like lock in, 75 00:03:56,640 --> 00:03:58,680 Speaker 4: you've already locked in your financing and they can't take 76 00:03:58,680 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 4: it away. 77 00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:02,320 Speaker 2: But that makes me a little shaky. Saki, what say you, manajoin? 78 00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 3: I completely agree with you. Two big red flags, that 79 00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:08,120 Speaker 3: being one. The second one is yes, they're offering one 80 00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:10,920 Speaker 3: hundred and thirty five K, so that's fifty k more 81 00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:14,000 Speaker 3: than he's from my mathematics are correct, fifty k more 82 00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:17,560 Speaker 3: than he's making now. But it's a contract role and 83 00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:21,239 Speaker 3: with that means they are not giving you ne'er one benefit, 84 00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:24,680 Speaker 3: probably no four to one K matching, probably no healthcare, 85 00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:28,359 Speaker 3: probably no free be this and free be that. And 86 00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:30,839 Speaker 3: I think that's why you're seeing an inflated salary. And 87 00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:32,960 Speaker 3: also you're gonna have to you know, if they pay you. 88 00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:35,000 Speaker 3: I don't know if they'll take out taxes, but you 89 00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:37,599 Speaker 3: may have to set aside some of that for taxes 90 00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:40,880 Speaker 3: as well as well. So I would ask those questions 91 00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:44,159 Speaker 3: for sure, especially if you're seriously entertaining this offer, you 92 00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:46,880 Speaker 3: really should know exactly what this means to you. I 93 00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:48,599 Speaker 3: see you said you're building a house. You say, we 94 00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:50,560 Speaker 3: so I assume you have a partner, you know, if 95 00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:52,960 Speaker 3: they can provide you health benefits or if you're not 96 00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:55,040 Speaker 3: missing out on any benefits that you are at your 97 00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:57,720 Speaker 3: current employer, you know, maybe that is a little bit 98 00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:00,360 Speaker 3: more in favor of the more higher paying role. At 99 00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:02,839 Speaker 3: the end of the day, I think Tiffany's exactly right. 100 00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:05,239 Speaker 3: As long as you're building this house, and my little 101 00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:07,640 Speaker 3: brother's actually building a house right now in Atlanta.

My question 140 00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:09,760 Speaker 4: is how do I check the compensation rate for the 141 00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:12,280 Speaker 4: new job in a new state and to see if 142 00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:15,920 Speaker 4: it's comparable to working in California. I know there are 143 00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:20,160 Speaker 4: no jobs across state lines offering salary matching. I just 144 00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:24,480 Speaker 4: don't want to be undervalued while moving to working in 145 00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:28,120 Speaker 4: a new state and not get paid my value.

So it's like you're looking 148 00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:36,960 Speaker 4: for work higher education. I'm assuming you meaning in colleges 149 00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:39,600 Speaker 4: or you know, that's what I'm thinking. So you've had 150 00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:42,080 Speaker 4: all these interviews, still nothing has come back. But you're 151 00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:46,440 Speaker 4: trying to basically compare working from state to state to see. 152 00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:47,520 Speaker 2: How much money is. 153 00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:53,400 Speaker 4: Like obviously, California the coast typically pay more than other states. 154 00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:57,320 Speaker 4: So you're just like, you know, it's California's ninety thousand. 155 00:07:57,400 --> 00:07:59,840 Speaker 4: Texas is fifty thousand, So you're trying to look is 156 00:07:59,880 --> 00:08:01,160 Speaker 4: that was that what you're getting from this that she's 157 00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:04,480 Speaker 4: trying to figure out, like having a pair compensation rate 158 00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:05,240 Speaker 4: from state to state. 159 00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:09,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think she's preparing herself to possibly be getting 160 00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:11,760 Speaker 3: offers from these out of state jobs that are less 161 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:15,160 Speaker 3: than what she's possibly expecting in California, but she wants 162 00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:17,520 Speaker 3: to know how low should she go. My question is 163 00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:20,080 Speaker 3: you know, even now with this pandemic life, is the 164 00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:21,680 Speaker 3: job going to be remote or are you going to 165 00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:24,560 Speaker 3: be moving to these states.

They may have location specific salary advice. 169 00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:39,000 Speaker 3: You can also there's cost of living calculators. We can 170 00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:41,080 Speaker 3: link to a couple in our show notes that maybe 171 00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:44,400 Speaker 3: would help you. But also even if there's a forum, 172 00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:48,160 Speaker 3: you know, a Facebook group or community or a professional 173 00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:51,520 Speaker 3: organization wherever you may find your peers in other states, 174 00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:54,160 Speaker 3: you could ask one of them to give you just 175 00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:56,280 Speaker 3: to be a sounding board for some of the offers 176 00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:59,120 Speaker 3: that you're getting. But if you're moving, yes, I say 177 00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:01,520 Speaker 3: adjust your expectations. If they're going to allow you to 178 00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:05,120 Speaker 3: be remote and work in California, you know, you could 179 00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:08,000 Speaker 3: justify expecting a bit more as you do have a 180 00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:10,480 Speaker 3: higher cost of living. You know, for example, if you 181 00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:12,960 Speaker 3: want to stay in California, they may say, maybe the 182 00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:14,559 Speaker 3: pay is a little bit lower, but we're going to 183 00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:16,760 Speaker 3: let you stay in California. You don't have to uprat 184 00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:19,240 Speaker 3: your life. You know, that's an additional benefit to you. 185 00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:22,400 Speaker 3: It's definitely a conversation, but it's a little bit nuanced, 186 00:09:22,400 --> 00:09:25,400 Speaker 3: and for me, it's really down to where are you moving? 187 00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:27,719 Speaker 3: You know, are you going to stay in California and 188 00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:31,680 Speaker 3: you know, will they expect you to accept a little 189 00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:33,200 Speaker 3: bit of a lower pay because they're going to let 190 00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:35,800 Speaker 3: you stay remote, or will you, you know, move to 191 00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:36,640 Speaker 3: these new states. 192 00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:38,880 Speaker 2: It looks like she's wanting to move. 193 00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:41,800 Speaker 4: She's looking like basically, she's like, I don't you know 194 00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:44,080 Speaker 4: how Like I know, and like, because I live in Jersey, 195 00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:46,960 Speaker 4: I could tell you like what teachers make on average, 196 00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:50,040 Speaker 4: you know, and like what's what's low, what's high. She's 197 00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:52,040 Speaker 4: basically like, I'm not trying to move to a new 198 00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:54,760 Speaker 4: state only to find out the Texas people they tricked 199 00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:58,520 Speaker 4: me that in Texas this is actually low. So I mean, yeah, 200 00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:00,480 Speaker 4: I'm trying to thinking in New Jersey, where would I 201 00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:02,640 Speaker 4: find the information of like I feel like it's not 202 00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:05,400 Speaker 4: with the Google search, right, Like what do teachers make? 203 00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:07,000 Speaker 4: Let's pretend you're trying to be a teacher. What do 204 00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:09,280 Speaker 4: teachers make in New Jersey? Because what they'll do is 205 00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:13,760 Speaker 4: they'll actually list, especially for higher education, they'll list kind 206 00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:16,559 Speaker 4: of like the expected salary. So that way that should 207 00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:18,240 Speaker 4: give you like a range of like what you should 208 00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:20,439 Speaker 4: look into. Like, well, okay, if I go to Texas 209 00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:22,960 Speaker 4: and I see that for my position, you know the 210 00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:26,960 Speaker 4: average pay is eighty thousand and they're offering you sixty, 211 00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:28,640 Speaker 4: then you know it's on the low end. 212 00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:31,040 Speaker 2: But education is a space that you can. 213 00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:33,680 Speaker 4: Easily do your Googles and literally see it, like I know, 214 00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:37,240 Speaker 4: for example that Newark because urban settings tend to pay 215 00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:39,360 Speaker 4: more than rural settings in New Jersey. Because I don't 216 00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:40,719 Speaker 4: know if I told you ever, Mandy, that one time 217 00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:42,800 Speaker 4: I had posted like, oh, you know, when I first 218 00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:45,199 Speaker 4: started teaching, I was making thirty nine thousand dollars a 219 00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:48,760 Speaker 4: year and this woman called me a liar on Instace. 220 00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:50,880 Speaker 4: She's like, you're a liar. I'm a teacher in New Jersey. 221 00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:53,800 Speaker 4: We don't make that much now, let alone that long ago. 222 00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:57,080 Speaker 4: I was like, hold please, because Google's are real. I 223 00:10:57,120 --> 00:11:00,000 Speaker 4: showed her that, like one literally I think in Newark 224 00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:03,120 Speaker 4: people are starting at sixty five thousand, because she was 225 00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:05,920 Speaker 4: in rural New Jersey, and I said, I mean, I'm 226 00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:07,920 Speaker 4: not trying to shame you about, you know, making less, 227 00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:11,959 Speaker 4: but yes, there are some areas of the same state 228 00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:14,520 Speaker 4: that pay differently. And she was like, oh wow, I 229 00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:17,440 Speaker 4: didn't know that. And so, you know, don't be like, 230 00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:20,959 Speaker 4: we'll call her Shila. Don't be like Shila. Do your 231 00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:22,760 Speaker 4: googles and figure out, like you know, what the pay 232 00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:25,920 Speaker 4: range is. Sometimes there's depending what kind of job it is. 233 00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:28,880 Speaker 4: Sometimes there's literally actually websites, like especially if it's a 234 00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:31,360 Speaker 4: government or a state job as relates to higher education, 235 00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:34,800 Speaker 4: there's definitely going to be salary scales available online. 236 00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:37,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, And I also don't hate the fact that you 237 00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:39,640 Speaker 3: might be walking into that negotiation with a little bit 238 00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:42,640 Speaker 3: of California swagger. Yes, you know, expecting a little bit 239 00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:44,800 Speaker 3: more because maybe you ask for more and they find 240 00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:46,480 Speaker 3: that they can incher that budget up a little bit. 241 00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:49,679 Speaker 3: I love an outlier. And my experience as a manager, 242 00:11:49,679 --> 00:11:52,199 Speaker 3: whenever you'd have someone coming in, especially if you're approaching 243 00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:55,560 Speaker 3: somebody from another company, typically you got to give them 244 00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:57,840 Speaker 3: a bigger raise. So for example, if I was hiring, 245 00:11:58,120 --> 00:12:00,840 Speaker 3: if I had just promoted a writer to a senior writer, 246 00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:03,400 Speaker 3: maybe they got a I don't know, ten percent raise. 247 00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:05,800 Speaker 3: But if I was recruiting a senior writer from somewhere 248 00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:08,360 Speaker 3: else and I had to lure them to me, they 249 00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:10,360 Speaker 3: may come in like a twenty percent and then the 250 00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:13,080 Speaker 3: next round of compensation it's like, oh, well, we have 251 00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:15,200 Speaker 3: this new person coming in. They're kind of raising the 252 00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:17,000 Speaker 3: bar for salary. You know, we got to make sure 253 00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:19,560 Speaker 3: everyone else is on the same page. So rising tides 254 00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:21,600 Speaker 3: kind of lift all boats. So I'm not mad at 255 00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:23,920 Speaker 3: you walking in there asking for a little bit more 256 00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:28,080 Speaker 3: than maybe a local a local would, but yeah, absolutely. 257 00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:30,200 Speaker 4: Cause you from Caliboo Boo, you been leaning into it. 258 00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:39,160 Speaker 4: If you have questions, you can submit them. 259 00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:42,679 Speaker 3: To us that Ambition podcast at gmail dot com.
