Salary Advice
Hi guys I'm new poster to the board, but am already a regular visitor. I'm currently living in the Camarillo, California and its seems highly likely...fingers crossed.....that i will be offered a job with H1b sponsorship in the next few days. I was wondering what sort of salary i should expect? Its a publishing company in south California, Ventura county. My role would be to manage a web publishing IT project its a new project and the department is only small so id only have to manage a team of approx 5. My level would be one below director! Having never negotiated for a job in the USA can someone offer advice as to a) what sort of salary i should be looking for, b) whether salary negotiation is acceptable.
Thanks JPHCCFC |
Re: Salary Advice
I have already done some investigation via, dice.com and monster.com and they seem to indicate anything from 67k - 87k or 99k-120k........there really are some strong differences!

Thanks JPHCCFC I manage a global IT dept for a large multi-national subsidiary in LA. What size is the company ? we are around 500million and I have a web publishing manager who gets around 110k. He has around 15 years in the industry and is also proficient in RPG, Java and has 5 years web sphere commerce experience. As Bored Silly said nothing can compare to the cost of living here ,even in the valley where I guess you would live, I have had major issues attracting staff from the Mid West (where we are based) for salaries of 100k+ - they run when they see house prices. :scared: Our salaries are in ranges so aim high ! PM if you want more info |
