    Guide to Compensation and Employee Benefits | Dan Space

    Why is it that some jobs are paid more than others, even within the same industry? And why does it seems impossible to negotiate a higher salary with some companies?

We cover the six pillars of compensation that directly influence how much you're paid, decoding how factors like company size, industry revenue, and job family- industry alignment can seriously impact your paycheck.

Listen in as we shed light on compensatio ratios, federal law compliance in compensation practices, and the curious trend of companies making their 'best and final' offers.
    You're going to gain so many valuable insights into compensation that can help you better understand why companies offer the salary ranges and help you better negotiate your offer. Tune into the episode to hear more about:

This pod has saved this job seeker’s sanity

I am a huge advocate of Teal! The subscription cost is worth every penny. The fact that the company has also provided access to the voices who are doing the hiring is a MAJOR value add! Thank you! :)

HIwilma ,

Always informative

This quickly became one of my favorite work related podcasts. Even when an episode doesn’t seem like it will be helpful, I always take away something useful. The tough love” advice from the host and guests is great because it’s often the things you can’t say from the hiring side of the table.

Law lady ,

Really great from start to finish!

I am so glad I heard about this podcast on LinkedIn! It’s been super informative, transparent and REAL, which is what people need. I especially loved the episode with Eddiana Rosen and getting a perspective from a hustler such as herself. Excited to hear what’s next!
