Hii! :) any tips for salary negotiations? I just made a year at my job and am trying to get more $$ before my annual review in the summer (about 15-20 percent higher). Love your blog btw!!💕
Hey Anon :)
Congratulations on reaching your one-year anniversary and aiming for a well-deserved raise! Negotiating salary can be daunting, but with preparation and the right approach, you can increase your chances of success. Here are some tips:
Before the Conversation
Research the average salary for your position and experience level in your location. Use resources like Glassdoor, Salary.com, and industry-specific reports. Quantify your accomplishments over the past year, including metrics that demonstrate your value and impact on the company.
Prepare talking points based on your achievements and how you contribute to the company's success. Be clear, concise, and confident in your value proposition. Practice your delivery until you feel comfortable and articulate.
Aiming for a 15-20% raise is ambitious, but not impossible. Consider factors like company budget, recent performance reviews, and the overall economic climate. Be prepared to negotiate a lower increase or alternative benefits package if needed.
During the Conversation
Request a dedicated meeting with your manager (not during a casual chat) to discuss your compensation. This shows seriousness and allows for focused discussion.
Express your gratitude for the opportunity to work at the company and your overall satisfaction with your role.
Clearly and concisely present your reasons for requesting a raise, highlighting your accomplishments and contributions. Use your prepared talking points and relevant data to support your argument.
Emphasize your future value to the company and how you plan to contribute even more in the coming year.
Listen to your manager's perspective and be open to discussing alternative options, such as a phased increase or additional benefits.
Be professional, polite, and respectful throughout the conversation. Stay calm and avoid becoming emotional or confrontational.
After the conversation, send a thank-you email summarizing your key points and any next steps discussed.
Determine the absolute minimum compensation you would accept before seeking opportunities elsewhere.
I hope this helps! Good luck with your negotiation!
Dude, Making Fiends has a literal simplistic, basic and irrealistic designs that don't give you much torture and much unnecessary work, just look at this:
It shows how a simplistic, basic and irrealistic designs could be more fun to animate than unnecessary, detailed, generic and realistic enough designs. And also, I feel really bad for the artist who had to draw and animate those Goddamn awful dildos, sex and lewd jokes scenes.
You have got to be joking!
35 dollars for seconds of animation? The usual pay is 60? When they need to do 24 by hand drawings, to get an entire second?, of this overcomplicated designs???
Bro have you seen the animation of Bee's song??? The shit ton of details the characters have and complicated designs is hellish.
THIS???
Did the killing scene in Truth Seeker's had the same pay???
(legit question, does this apply to the Stolas "look my way" animated song or no? Cause if it is- shit)
Liar
EDIT:
Minimum wage, in the USA, no longer provides enough for the average American Family.
(the Hazbin is the spot offer up, is the 35 dollars, the usual helluva is 60) Each drawing takes a lot of time to draw, specially for this complicated designs with so many shit going on. Clean up artist, have a really hard front of the job. (also bento is not the same, this is about Spindlehorse pay)
Cleaning this over design girl seems like a nightmare. Cleaning and redrawing these characters is a lot, many marks many, small details, two arms, the anatomy, shapes (that need to be keep consistent in movement, and have different weight) and she also spins around and shows many angles too.
This up is rough work, the cleanup artist does the main lifework. They clean the lines
Here is an example of clean up work:
Some examples clean up work in HB:
EDIT:
These kinds of problems happen alot, sadly. This is not exclusive to Spindle horse/HH/HB.
This is about anime and the problems with it, and it's a bigger industry over all. And connects back to the shitty work culture in JP.
A video going over Japanese animators:
(this are mainly japanese animation, cause i consume this content- and my inspiration as an animator is anime)
+in this documentary, you can see many stress sad animators working. And many of the process of animation.
It's been difficult for animators all over the work to deals with many issues. It's sad this happens both in industries and indie. There is a need to get a better situation for people over all in these positions!
