'Pay me less for exponentially more work': New hire negotiates salary based on "assistant" title, only to discover on day one that he is a department head
Imagine going through the entire job application, interview, and salary negotiation process only to discover that your actual job has far more responsibilities and expectations than you were anticipating.
This new hire spent thousands of dollars relocating to a new city in order to be a communications assistant. He had negotiated his salary to reflect the typical range for a position of that nature. However, after beginning the job, he learned that he was the head of the entire communications department and no one told him otherwise. This, of course, seems like a pretty convenient bit of information to reveal after one's salary negotiations. Always remember that human resources is there to protect the company and not the employee.
