Start with the full picture
Ask whether the number is gross or net, how often it is paid, and which regular costs or benefits sit beside it.
Pay & offers
Know what
you are saying
yes to.
work.ke will not invent a salary number where the context is missing. This page gives you the questions that make an offer easier to understand, compare and discuss.
A useful conversation
The offer is more than one number.
Good questions are not awkward. They protect both sides from assumptions and help you decide whether a role fits the life and work you are building.
Before you accept
Four checks
worth making.
Compare like with like
A title alone is not a benchmark. Scope, seniority, working hours, location and responsibility change what a fair comparison means.
Ask the practical questions
Clarify probation, review points, leave, insurance, equipment, travel and the expectations that are not captured in one salary figure.
Get the offer in writing
Before you resign or commit, make sure the role, pay, start date and key terms are clear in a document you can read carefully.
Use the offer conversation to decide with clarity, then find the next real opportunity.
