1. Negotiating Salary - Suggestions

   alfredlikes replied to hik9258's topic in NP

   70k a year?? That's like nothing after taxes. Tell your employer to f*** off with that joke of a salary especially in Nevada. You are a provider bringing in large profit for the practice. Tell them to offer you at LEAST 90K with bonus and other benef...
