How should we view the situation where new employees in a company earn the same salary whether they have a bachelor’s or a master’s degree?

Our company has hired 4 new employees this year: two master’s graduates (I am one of them), one bachelor’s graduate, and one former bachelor’s graduate! During the trial period, the salary is uniformly 2000*70%; it will be fixed at 2000 after becoming a full-time employee, and master’s degree holders receive an additional 200 yuan in allowance for their degree! It’s not about how much money it is! Putting work ability aside, I’m definitely not bad! I think this is completely unreasonable; it feels like the efforts put in over three years of graduate study are being disregarded! I wonder if anyone has had such an experience!

I graduated from a technical school in the early 1980s. Do you know what value such diplomas had back then? After graduation, everyone thought they would achieve something by working in a factory. Actually, that’s wrong; just working shifts takes 3-5 years. Later I understood the truth: if you have the skills, you need to show them; if not, there’s nothing to talk about. So whether one has the ability or not, people only judge by their words and actions! A diploma is just a stepping stone; only by performing well on a small stage can one gain access to larger stages!

You can’t say that. What if there was a elementary school student who went into the factory with you and got the same amount as you did? How would you feel?

:Lol if that’s really the case, I’m speechless. If you encounter it, it’s not too late to feel upset then! Besides, everyone has their strengths.

Think more about how to learn things – it’s just a small amount of money after all. Pay less attention to such things in the future and focus more on learning; by then it will be impossible to avoid it even if you want to

I think it’s acceptable at the moment since I’ve just started working; what’s important is to actively learn in your future work, make use of your intelligence and skills, and help the company solve various problems, thereby truly demonstrating your strengths. The company will definitely notice that. By then, you’ll also have practical experience. If the company still doesn’t give you more responsibilities, then you’ll have the leverage to negotiate with your boss – but now isn’t the right time for that.

Putting everything else aside, this 70% is illegal. According to the Labor Contract Law, it should be at least 80%

In such a company, the head of the human resources department is an idiot! It’s obvious that such companies won’t achieve much growth. Didn’t you know about the salary policy before coming? Since we are here, let’s make the best of it. Work hard and make use of your intelligence. At the beginning of your career, don’t worry too much about things; otherwise, you’ll soon find that there’s no place for you.

I think there’s a problem with your company’s salary system – master’s degree holders get 200 per month, while those with a bachelor’s degree get less.

It seems this company is quite far from the kind of company you imagined. The work involved in design is the same whether you have a bachelor’s or a master’s degree; it’s only after actually starting to work that things become clear. If you don’t put in effort, even someone with just a bachelor’s degree can do a better job than you
