I am currently negotiating salary for a manager position. Met is offering me less than what I make at present job, and insisting that I need to focus at TOTAL COMP that they offer. They (interviewers) have been trying to convince me that Met is pretty good with paying bonuses (upto 20% offererd to me). They say most years people make 100% of their planned bonus. Is that true? I find it difficult to take a pay cut. Any advice? |

This is not the place you want to work. For every 1 positive comment, you'll find thousands of negatives. Met is a shell of its former self, and there may be no worse company to work for. You will be miserable and no bonus will cure that. Don't take the pay cut. Don't accept any offer at any price. Morale sucks. As a new manager, you'll be viewed as the enemy. You'll get no support, and may even be undermined. Your first year you will not make your bonus, and you'll be told that's normal. Your second year will be a different excuse.
