Supporting women doesn’t mean agreeing with every choice they make. It means respecting their right to make that choice. 🩷

Feminism is not about creating one “right” way for women to live, lead, work, love, or succeed. It is about making space for women to choose their own path without judgment.

Different choices. Different journeys. Equal respect. ✨

“Feminism is grounded in supporting the choices of women even if we wouldn’t make certain choices for ourselves.”

— I Don’t Need Pity. I Need Employment.

"But what can I do. I’ve survived every obstacles said I wouldn’t. A stroke at 29, heart attack at 32, living with MS being in a wheelchair 5 times unable to walk and talk, 2025 lung tried to collapse in ICU, 2025 again they said I needed emergency surgery but I survived again, stomache Cancer survivor, Multiple myeloma, so much I’ve fought all of that but I can’t get a job to save me to get a place."

Meet Claudia Long, an HR professional with expertise in employee relations, HR operations, HRIS, benefits, total rewards, and full-cycle recruiting, with a strong focus on supporting both employees and organisational needs.

"I’m exhausted so deeply! My rent is due tomorrow no exceptions that said. They will file eviction by 8/10/26. God please! If you on my timeline and have a job please hire me! I will relocate if need Houston, Austin, other cities. I just need to survive to pay my bills, to buy my medications. I’m really sorry for needing to ask. I truly hate I need to ask for help. I did apply at midnight for Corsicana assistance," Claudia wrote in one of her posts.

The work you do should count, even when the world doesn’t always know how to count it.

At employHER, we see how much goes into building a career. It’s not just the years on your CV or the title on your LinkedIn profile. It’s the skills you picked up while raising a family, the experience you gained during a career break, the confidence you rebuilt after being overlooked, and the work you did to make a place for yourself in a room that wasn’t always made for you.

We also know that getting an opportunity is only part of the story. Being paid fairly, being taken seriously, and having room to grow matter just as much.

So this Labor Day, we’re celebrating the work that gets recognised, the work that happens behind the scenes, and the people who keep showing up even when the path isn’t straightforward.

Because your work deserves more than a thank-you. It deserves to be seen, valued, and given a fair shot.

What’s one part of your career journey you wish more people understood? 🤍

Happy Labor Day from all of us at employHER.

85% of a salary negotiation is decided before you even finish your sentence.

That is not an exaggeration. Columbia Business School researcher Adam Galinsky found that the first specific number said in a negotiation, whoever says it, can explain 50 to 85 percent of the final outcome. It is called the anchoring effect, and it is one of the most well-documented findings in behavioral economics.

Here is what that means for you. If you let the employer name the number first, you are negotiating inside their range. If you name a well-researched number first, you set the range they are negotiating inside.

The data backs this up completely. In a study of 3,858 tech candidates, people who countered their offer walked away with an average raise of 12.45 percent, roughly $27,000 a year. Yet only 30% of US workers ever ask for more than what they were initially offered.

Here is exactly how to do it. If your offer is in the low end of the market, counter 10 to 20% above it. If it is already mid-range, counter 5 to 7% above it. And say a range, not a flat number. Columbia researchers found that asking for something like $102,000 to $108,000 outperforms asking for a flat $102,000, because it is harder for an employer to counter low without seeming unreasonable.

The exact sentence to use. Based on my research and experience, I am looking for something in the range of X to Y. Is there flexibility there? Then stop talking. The first person to speak after that sentence usually loses the negotiation.

This matters more than one paycheck. Your starting salary becomes the baseline for every raise that follows it. A $5,000 gap today can mean $600,000 lost over a 40-year career.

You cannot anchor with confidence if you do not know the market rate first. Every role on employHER has the salary posted upfront, so your next counter is backed by real data, not a guess.

Save this before your next offer lands. Share it with someone about to negotiate for the first time.

— Officially Homeless, Ugh

"My family is facing an immediate housing crisis. We need to be out of our current temporary housing by August 31, and despite doing everything I can to secure work and stabilize things, I’m not there yet. My family includes my younger brother and my father, who relies on Social Security. I’m also disabled and have been fighting cancer. We’ve been trying to hold everything together while dealing with medical expenses, lost income, housing instability, and the uncertainty of finding the next place to live."

-- An affordable apartment
-- An employer hiring senior AI/software engineers
-- Someone who can help us bridge a short-term housing gap," Scarlett wrote in one of her posts.

At employHER, we believe your story deserves to be seen, heard, and valued. Own it proudly. Grow through it boldly. And never underestimate the courage it takes to choose yourself. ✨

10 Days Left — I’m Still Holding on to Hope, but It Feels Like It’s Fading 💔

"I wake up every morning praying that something will change. I check my progress hoping to see a miracle, hoping that somehow I will be able to raise enough to keep a roof over my son’s head. I’m working again. I’m doing everything I can. But the months I spent without income after losing my job because I spoke up about sexual harassment left us far behind, and I simply cannot recover from that fast enough on my own. The thought of losing our home and my son potentially having to live with his father because I can't keep us here is absolutely heartbreaking. I am scared. I am exhausted. And I am desperately trying not to lose hope."

THIS MESSAGE, this message needs to reach you, reach every helping hand who is always there to support.

Meet Charity Weir, a versatile professional with experience in research, customer service, Microsoft Office, and AI tools. As a novelist, she brings creativity and strong communication skills, along with a genuine eagerness to learn and take on new challenges.

"For months, I was without work after losing my job because I spoke up about sexual harassment. Those months without an income put us further and further behind financially. I fell behind on our bills and housing costs while desperately trying to find work and keep our lives from falling apart. I am working again now. I am doing everything I can to rebuild what was lost, but I am trying to climb out of a financial hole that became far too deep while I was unemployed. Unfortunately, I am running out of time," Charity wrote in her GoFundMe campaign.

We are so proud of you, Charity, for standing against the wrong and showing this level of resilience. We hope this small feature can make things a little easier for you.

employHER urges everyone to help her in any way possible. You can send the right opportunities her way, recommend her to someone who is hiring, share her open-to-work post in your network, or write her a recommendation if you know her professionally.

Charity, you can also consider creating your profile on www.employHER.com and exploring the opportunities we have been posting daily. We hope you'll find the opportunities you have been looking for.

You worked harder this year. You hit your targets. You stayed late when it mattered. And your raise looked almost identical to the person on your team who did the bare minimum. There is a name for that now. It is called a peanut butter raise, and it is spreading fast across corporate America in 2026.

Here is what it actually means. Instead of rewarding performance, companies are giving everyone the exact same percentage increase, spread thin across the entire organization like peanut butter over bread. It looks fair on paper. In reality, it quietly erases the difference between your best people and your most replaceable ones.

44% of US employers are already using or considering this approach in 2026. Only 48% of companies now say they even plan to differentiate raises by performance at all. Starbucks made headlines when it gave every North American salaried employee a flat 2% raise, no merit review involved, as part of a broader cost-cutting plan.

This is not new. Compensation strategists point out this exact pattern happened after the 2008 financial crisis too. Peanut butter raises tend to show up whenever the economy gets shaky and companies want predictable budgets more than they want to reward their best talent.

The cost is real. 25% of companies already admit they are losing top employees over insufficient pay increases. And if your flat raise does not even outpace inflation, you did not get a raise. You took a quiet pay cut.

If this happened to you this year, that is information, not an insult. Job switchers saw 4.1% wage growth in the past year compared to 3.5% for people who stayed. Sometimes the market is telling you something your current employer will not.

Know what your role is actually worth. Every listing on employHER has the salary posted upfront, so you always know where you stand before you accept anything less than what you have earned.

Save this if your last raise felt smaller than your effort. Send it to someone who needs the vocabulary for what just happened to their paycheck.
