Left unvalued employer

My employer offered a contract with a $32k pay cut, which I felt was a significant betrayal of trust

What I wish I knew
"I wish I had negotiated my contract more thoroughly before signing"
If I could tell you one thing
"Don't be afraid to walk away from a job that doesn't value you"
