Use levels.fyi for general salaries, align Head of Development with the salary level you want to negotiate for, and use it as evidence for that rate.
Want £100k? Find the appropriate level on the site that has that rate and make an argument that head of development is that level. You can make this argument for basically any level, with that title, so this alone might work.
Probably argue that now you have line manager responsibilities alongside development requirements you feel the salary bump doesn’t adequately reflect the much greater workload, especially without additional equity.
Most contracts say you can’t do work on the side in the UK without permission so I wouldn’t highlight this, just because it probably won’t impact negotiations (there’s better things to say) and at worst could cause issues where they ask you to stop. Unlikely, but in general don’t mention this stuff.
If you frame this in the context of existing outdoor recreation equipment like skis and mountain bikes and then factor in something like FSA/HSA eligibility this is more attainable than I was initially expecting.
Generally speaking, exercise equipment is not eligible. However, one can get a “letter of necessity” from a doctor. I have no idea how hard that would be.
But I believe GP’s point was that if such a thing became eligible for HSA purchase, it would make it much more attainable.
Depending on how much fitment it requires, would be great for a rental. This isn't something that folks that need it for hiking would be using all the time.
I’m shocked people used the card - most companies affected were big, surely they’d put this through legal first to check it doesn’t impact abilities to join a lawsuit later on etc…
That's not how flagging works. If enough users flag a story, it's automatically killed, not killed by moderators. The active moderation tends to be suppressing the flagging on some amount of controversial stuff.
Yeah it’s sad. Some companies are better than others, and it’s personally my favorite part of software engineering, but a lot of large companies cut it at the first opportunity.
That would seem crazy. Maybe there is a crowdstrike onprem “master server” that is supposed to be available internally? Just spitballing, have no idea really
