So since I have coworkers on my Facebook and don't know what subreddit to put this on, I decided to write this here.
I told my employer for my salary review that I needed time a lot more than money. The salary review happened and I received a promotion and a 16% raise to my base salary, quarterly company performance bonus and an 80 hour biweekly schedule that lets me choose when to work those hours more or less.
They also said that if I needed to work part-time to let them know. I gave them a ton of options and they just threw a lot of money at me even when I said that money isn't my primary motivation. My kid is nearing school age and I did forward my school's schedule to my boss and explained how my husband works long 12 hour shifts, so I will be on my own for drop offs and pick ups often. They are adverse to longterm remote plans, but said that they will work with me if I need to be remote.
So I received a lot of unclear answers and I am just not sure how to move forward. I am going to write up a proposal for a schedule next week, but how ballsy should I be with it? (I can absolutely live off my husband's income comfortably, but I finally got the IT part of my job formally recognized and it is a huge step in the right direction for my end career goal).
How ballsy was everyone else with their salary negotiations?
And I swear I'm not going to let her know all the pain I have known
