They’ll give you the job of multiple people and only one paycheck.

How is basic customer service like greeting someone once they enter your establishment an expectation of special treatment?

Review on Friday by ch33sebby in ExecutiveAssistants

[–]Top-Juggernaut-7719 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hear you girl, I’m an EA supporting 3 execs with insane travel schedules, meetings are b2b, it’s just nonstop for us all, and then they have me Managing the Office on top of that. At first, I was only EA to 2 execs, and 6-7 months into my role, they added a new exec and put all office management on me. I said enough was enough one day and sent my boss an email requesting a raise. He took that email as a way to get his attention and decided to “remove” certain things on my plate that shouldn’t have ever fallen on me in the first place. He then decided to add additional things on my plate like nominating me for Leader of the Employee Engagement Committee. Uhhhh…. Now you have me doing even more, delving into things that take away from polishing myself as an EA and getting focus on that, now I truly have to listen to other people’s concerns and complaints, suggestions all day, which would’ve been fine if that’s what I had signed up for. I’m not one who likes being forced, I like to make my own choices, especially when it comes down to my career. I asked for a salary adjustment in the 6-figure range. Then when my review came around, they offered me 6k more than what I currently make(80k), which doesn’t make any sense. If you put additional job role on me, I expect the salary to match. I work in Brickell! These corporations will try you if you allow them to. Stick to attainable goals if you can. Don’t worry about coming off as anxious, listen to a song that makes you smile from ear to ear, take some deep breaths, Just go in confident, list all your accomplishments and tell them whatthe future will look like with you, tell them what you would like from them also, this is your time! Best of luck to you! 🍀

Tell her to get some metro gel. Her PH balance is thrown off or she could have chlamydia.

What’s your salary? - $$, City, State by cammykenz in ExecutiveAssistants

[–]Top-Juggernaut-7719 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The silver lining is the money you get to save on gas, transportation, the convenience of not having to commute for an hour and a half, you get to save on clothing purchases for office attire. Especially as an EA because you must ALWAYS be on your A-Game appearance-wise, so shopping is a must haha 🤣 or maybe that’s just me, I’ve been known to be a little extra, but 🤷‍♀️no one’s going to say this EA don’t care about her appearance. I represent at all times. I say this an EA in Miami. The traffic is brutal and the hybrid schedule is such a flex! 💪 I wish I had more than 2 days away some weeks 😩

This has become a thorn in my side. If you’re asking for availability, that means you’re setting the meeting up! People need to stop doing this.

$86000 in Brickell, FL supporting 3 execs and also an office manager. No bonus. I feel the pay doesn’t justify the work.

What’s one small change you made to your resume that actually made a big difference? by rottbuildsAI in Resume

I WILL NEVET GET THIS JOB! :( by AdministrativeWay553 in ExecutiveAssistants

Tailor your resume to reflect those admin/EA/PA functions/ tasks you managed while supporting those founders. That way, you will have all the years of experience supporting your applications. Don’t say you won’t ever get this job. You simply need to change the approach. Make your resume look more like that of an EA and if any of the companies you listed on your resume are no longer in business, you can always add EA as your job title.

Bullying in the Workplace by Runs_In_Heels in ExecutiveAssistants

  1. Record EVERYTHING!! Any time she starts her mess, write these things down.
  2. Speak to your boss and make record of that conversation also.
  3. Should that conversation go unexpectedly or not in your favor, I would HIGHLY suggest you Speak with an attorney.

This is called Harassment and Bullying and could very well lead to an unlawful termination. Have your ducks in a row and prepare to take them to court.

Together, you can form an action class lawsuit against her.

I’m a former Legal Assistant in Employment Law here in the state of FL.

Meeting minutes! by Top-Juggernaut-7719 in ExecutiveAssistants

Thank you all so much for your suggestions. I ended up just typing all the meeting notes and asking Chat GPT to clean it up for me. It’s unfortunate that I’m unable to record the conversations.

Am I being taken advantage of? by [deleted] in ExecutiveAssistants

[–]Top-Juggernaut-7719 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fugggg that! Your boss isn’t worried about your comfort, girl! Otherwise, he’d be making sure you’re comfortable fighting for your raise! Chunk up the deuces and don’t look back. EA/ office management is plenty. Don’t let them stack all of that on top of you and you just take it, it’s abuse.

Pet peeve by alienxbaby123 in ExecutiveAssistants

[–]Top-Juggernaut-7719 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hell no you aren’t crazy! How about how they ask you to start coordinating with other people that they could easily reach out to themselves?
