Salary

Monday, June 23rd, 2008

Since Heather and I will be moving to Cambridge for two years in September, I have been keeping an eye out for any interesting jobs I might want to apply for.

One thing I have noticed is that some employers appear to be reluctant to advertise the salary that the job offers. For example, one particular worldwide bank, that originated in Asia in an area that was once controlled by Britain, likes to advertise the salary as being;

£excellent

What does that actually mean? What am I comparing it to? The salary of someone that’s unemployed, or the CEO of a multi-national chain of department stores? Be more precise please, and see me after class.
