29 Female
BS in History (and I'm in banking?!?!)
approx. 4 yrs banking (accounting, loans)
1 yr audit/compliance department
staff position
$25,750
1 week vacation, 10 sick days, no personal
great benefits
Rural South Central US
Asset size approx. 250 million
Females in this area are greatly underpaid than their male counterparts. A few months after I joined this department a male was hired with a starting salary above mine. I have more experience in banking and have an age advantage. At least you would think! The South is a wonderful place to live but don't count on getting an equivalent assessment. I was not raised with that mentality so its hard to adjust. Oh, I grew up in the South!

What is an "age advantage"?

As an aside, is $31K a livable wage for anyone in the banking field? Hopefully, you also get a clothing allowance or, perhaps, you only work three days a week.





Why do say that?

That may be "the job" - if it were not in the Western US. I would rather make my $50M and have 2200 sq ft home on 5 acres with a $275 house payment - in the South!

You have to remember all things are NOT equal.

Well, there it is - salary is relative with location a really big factor - on $74K in for example, Los Angeles, you cannot afford to buy 5 acres to put a house on.

Salary needs to be fair, based on what needs to be and is being accomplished, but it's not at the top of the list for most people.

The male in KY says "Ditto." I'm also very happy in my job and relatively stress-free compared to other positions I've held (branch manager, etc.).
