  • Roles where the company matters more than the people to accomplish strategic business goals and initiatives. Where public relations matters and they are politically nice to your face but not behind closed doors.

    Roles where to get ahead, you need to be better than someone else so putting people down (gossip, bashing, other stupid games) is normal. Encourages office politics and power is important.

    Where being caring and compassionate doesn’t get you ahead.

    Human Resources. It’s almost like all the pretty, cool girls from highschool- the bullies, the mean girls- went into HR.

    Not targeting anyone in particular. There are lots of kind people in HR.





















  • After reading the job descriptions it appears that a Senior Business Analyst is a hard to fill role with specific expertise. It requires experience, a bachelor’s degree, and a professional designation (CPA).

    The PSW requires less credentials (1 to 2 years of schooling, not as much experience). It may be seen as easier to fill or more candidates available. If PSWs are unionized then the wage would have been negotiated as well.

    The wages may have been determined by using market research data (aka competitive wage for the job in the region, province with respect to cost of living, etc), and based on lots of other factors.

    This is not to say the PSW doesn’t deserve to be paid more.
