Apr 22, 2012 at 5:31 comment added weronika I'm not sure about one point in the question - do you mean you've been doing 60 hours in this job already, or that the team lead job would bring you from 40 to 60 hours?
Apr 22, 2012 at 4:33 comment added Dipan Mehta In general, unless you are hourly waged, almost always it is a bad idea to negotiate less for less. When the job is defined in terms of responsibility it becomes easily stretchable. your biggest challenge isn't to convince them that More (60) hour should mean more money; but to show that given job actually is 60 hours.
Apr 22, 2012 at 4:30 comment added Dipan Mehta This is not an answer (or bad one at best). Search for another job and indicate this to HR that while your love your job,but you might have to leave this for basic reasons. If they are keen to keep you, they will bring things back to normal.
Apr 19, 2012 at 19:23 comment added Dunk Not to state the obvious, but did you consider just doing what you can in 40 hours and leave it at that? Why let them manipulate you into working 60 hours? You simply let them know that with your family situation, you can't be putting in overtime. They don't need to know anything about your particular family situation, which is that you want to spend more time with them.
Apr 17, 2012 at 23:49 comment added Affable Geek I took a (substantial) pay cut to take the job six months ago.
Apr 17, 2012 at 23:41 comment added Keith Thompson Just to be clear, when you say "reduced salary", do you mean you're getting less per hour (because you're working more hours), or is there an actual reduction in your total salary?
