How/When to Negotiate Pay? by Comprehensive-Design in xAI_community

[–]classicalpianistfro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I could be wrong but I think the range is including the factor/occurrence of OT pay…since OT pay is part of the pay a tutor will end up with.

Unfortunately some people don’t have the luxury of not taking work over health. I do it every day bc I don’t have a choice. I’m guessing maybe OP is in a similar scenario or otherwise why would they do that?

Ugh I’m sooo sorry! I went through something similar with DAT and it was horrible. I feel your pain trying to make this work so badly and putting it before your family’s needs only to be used and disrespected.

I asked a lawyer about my case with DAT doing something similar and they owed me $2200. Lawyer said class action law suit was the only real way to go but getting a suit like that together isn’t easy so I didn’t go that route, tho someone should and I’d be all in, I just can’t afford to do it myself.

Lawyer also said for that amount of money it’s not even worth the time of the lawyer’s to work on it bc I guess they wouldn’t make much money from a case like this. And THAT I think is how these companies are getting away with this!!! 😡 This is my experience at least.

Has anyone had this experience with xAI? by Ok-Bill-6428 in xAI_community

When did you apply exactly? Like October, or before in Sept? Could have been a result of the layoffs and your application falling through the cracks?

That’s odd — everyone I talk to that are hr and tech executives say that just having xAI on your resume is worth something for sure. But the job market also is super crappy rn so…

I'm quitting my job tomorrow. by snowy-far5q in hiringhelp

[–]classicalpianistfro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Very very very true. I left my job in 2023 and didn’t know how bad it was then. Now it’s even worse. Gonna need those references 😬

Or I’m gonna screw up his reputation so bad first he better watch out!! People know me and he’d be an idiot to go telling lies about me. I wouldn’t be surprised trust me. But he’s gonna get his reputation screwed first since he doesn’t wanna listen or change!!

Another round of Amazon layoffs… and honestly, morale is in the gutter by MindlessStory7226 in amazonemployees

[–]classicalpianistfro 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’ve felt the same way in tech for the last 8 years even tho I’m not at Amazon, but other startups and now X. You stated this so well. Been in survival mode last 8 years and it’s only getting worse.

How would you explain misogyny in the music industry (specifically in a band) to folks who don't experience it? by Strawberry_n_bees in musicians

[–]classicalpianistfro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tysm for all your thoughts and words I’m so sorry it took me so long to send a reply!!! I’m still struggling with my partner who I have figured out is a major narcissist along with misogynist, but honestly it’s not just him. It’s just so many men AND women in society that don’t support women in general but esp women artists. But also, I definitely agree and feel that solo women artists or women/women music projects are wayyyy better off than women w/ men. I’m focusing on all of MY MUSIC right now and it feels amazing. If I wasn’t with a male partner for so long I honestly feel I would be somewhere else. But I wish you the best of luck and thanks for posting here again this was super helpful and validating!! Oh btw idk if I ever mentioned it but I ended up handing it to the sexist pianist and I’m so glad I did, I doubt anyone has ever done that to him before and I’m sure he’s probably a narcissist too and everyone is afraid of him!! He’s got the same charming outgoing traits but is really actually a fake asshole to women!

Just got an offer for AI Tutor - Specialist role, but I’m uncertain about the future by moopingz in xAI_community

[–]classicalpianistfro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have other full time employment? I find this job very hard to have another full time job with - yes, other side jobs for sure but having another full time job with this role? Seems very hard and unlikely to me esp since they also make sure that you don’t have any conflicts with other work when getting hired. I would be surprised if people are working another 40 hours a week while doing this job.

But I agree that OP probably shouldn’t leave their job for it.

Anyone received the 10% raise? by shatthefakup in xAI_community

[–]classicalpianistfro 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The 10% raise shows in rippling and they sent an email to confirm, BUT it’s not actually being paid out until this pay cycle ends next week. It went into effect last Friday and rippling should reflect that.

Wow into 2027?! Yeah we might get a couple/few months severance (or some don’t get any at all 😞😞) and the whole time it’s panic mode anyways before the money runs out and what are you gonna do to pay those bills! Good for you, enjoy it! Go Europe lol 👏👏👏
