frustrated with "secret" starting pay

frustrated with "secret" starting pay - cathybmt

Posted:

I find myself "shopping" for another MT company and have really had it with the "competative pay" rather than just coming right out and telling what they start their MT's at - anyone else?

I really want this amount listed as some applications/tests are just not worth my time. I have 15 years of experience to offer these people and am tired of being treated as a begger when I ask their pay scale before wasting my time.

I would love it if all of us working now would just post our cpl or report pay on an entry level, listing it first by company name.
