Reply to Harvard Job Salary by [deleted]
Is the role union? Compensation for Harvard's union positions can be inflexible based on some factors, but once you're in, you have a number of options and protections. If you want to stay at Harvard, there are processes to regrade or reclass positions after some time, and there's the internal candidate avenue for applying to other jobs later on.

Universities typically have fairly quantifiable criteria for where in the pay range you ought to be, e.g., years of experience. I don't think it will hurt you to try because they will just say whether they are able to accommodate it or not. The criteria are designed to limit discretion.

But it’s not funny. I don’t think most people are trying to be funny.

Just because you work in HR somewhere, does not mean you have any knowledge of how salaries work in higher education, which is a highly specific field with different conventions than corporate America. Of course no one wants to be at the bottom of a salary band. But based on my experience actually working in this field I can tell you that an entry level candidate who asks for the top of the band will be removed from consideration.

Weird take. This is my actual profession. But you can stay at the bottom of the band if u want

Terrible advice, clearly you don’t have experience with negotiating a higher ed salary within a set band. To most younger people, they will offer within the first third of the band, and will be reluctant to budge based on their own assessment of equity across pay within the same band.

No I wanted to comment the same thing on both posts. No need to drool over your keyboard. Trust me homie, if I got 10m for a sculpture I wouldn't be on Reddit.

Am I allowed to climb on it? That might salvage it a little for me.
