What does "lowest possible offer" even mean? Lowest wage that you can live off? Lowest wage that anybody else in the company makes? Lowest wage that you'll accept?
- jghn 10y agoIt probably means that they have salary bands and you're starting at the bottom
- lukejduncan 10y agoThat's what they meant. And probably said. You can take my quote as a (close) paraphrase.
- pc86 10y agoPositions (titles) have salary bands. If you're at the top, you typically need a promotion to get anything beyond a COLA. They're saying that whatever your offered position is, you are at the bottom of the salary band as a matter of principle.
