TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
It would only take 100 employees in a 10,000 employee company (or 1%), with
each getting $10,000 more to effectively double the amount of money, based
on the amount of the CEOs bonus.
Corporate-wide policies aren't made to determine how a single technical
writer should be paid..they're there to determine how 10,000 employees
should be paid.

invest--particularly the potential employer--in the
interview and pursuit, what's $10k in the big scheme
of things? 1% of the CEO's bonus? Really. At that
