Subject:Compensation in Dallas From:Magita Storey <jellysideup -at- HOTMAIL -dot- COM> Date:Wed, 19 Aug 1998 21:28:12 PDT
Level with me, please. What is customary or reasonable compensation for
a very experienced tech writer at a consulting shop like EDS in the
Dallas Texas area? She has previous 10 years senior tech writing
experience with the client, enjoys a good relationship with them, and
they've pre-approved her hiring. Consider that the client is a govt
agency and the consulting company pays the tech writer's salary and
benefits. Also, the job is open-ended (GSA contract). There is a
relocation involved from a lower cost of living area.
Your feedback appreciated! Thanks
