FYI: In the last two years I have made approx. 10,000.00 in OT each year the amount has doubled and I do not see it easing up anytime soon. Their thinking is do more with less (yeah). So now they are wanting to change my status from hourly to salaried without a rate increase. I thought this was unfair, so I have done some research and they cannot force the change since I was not hired on that way. Also there is no difference in hourly vs. salary employees where I work as far as benefits go. I do have a slight advantage if I am pressured to negotiate, there is no one that can just step into my shoes immediately (Senior Graphic Designer, 16 years for inhouse agency, I know the biz well). Don't get me wrong I know no one is irreplaceable.I would like to know what other people think is a fair increase to ask for. If I am expected to change over and still work those hours. Help Please! PS, they want to switch the entire department of 21 over. Not just me. Its all about the bottom line
