[quote=Anonymous]I left a career of years working as a data analyst to become a SAHM. Due to Covid, a big move, and more kids, I ended up staying longer than I planned. I did some small part-time things (teaching, tutoring) here and there but now I need to find full-time, reasonably-paying work-- in this market. I am further out than DC proper but still in the broader DMV, so I'm impacted by the federal government's troubles. I was wondering - what is a reasonable pay to expect or ask for? I have a floor lower than which I can't go because it is less than childcare. Now, I've been out of the workforce six years, and I made $80K in an corporate strategy role. Adjusted for inflation this would approach $100K but I'm not expecting that. However, is $80K even reasonable to expect, or should I be expecting to be making $50-60K - which is what I made in my first job ever out of college over 15 years ago? Thank you for your help and advice. [/quote]
