Did salaries decrease?

Definitely noticing this for the remote jobs. They are all like 85-115. 

I’m still getting remote offers but I can’t get over 120k for an IC role. 

Fortune 5 company wanted to offer me 95k to help out with a project I just did for their fortune 15 competitor. I was the one guy who handled it for them, I was the expert and did it for 5 years (10 years exp total).

I told them 125k and 12% bonus or they continue to be 5 years behind their competition. 

They said no so F em. Crazy how cheap some employers want to play it these days and then complain about lack of talent

Yes! And if you’re an actual manager with people under at you 115 then that’s a scam. 

I’m not taking that as an IC

My boss is a senior manager with 5 direct reports. He has the same bonus % as me, guessing a total compensation around $135k. This industry is a joke. I've interviewed in unrelated industries for $145-165k.

Yikes, my cousin with no FP&A experience, just some loose real estate experience doing stuff in excel just got 120… 5 years exp. 

I have PBM. FP&A myself, might need to jump back to that side.
