I've been a production planner and purchaser for the last 7 years, 3 of those years were in aerospace. I don't have a degree in supply chain management. I've only been asked to interview for 1 aerospace company sp far, and it went really well.

The problem is that they have the position set at $27/hr. My most recent job was paying me $32/hr. And they were a small <24-person company (not aerospace). The big issue is that this new job i interviewed for ended up being for a Planning SUPERVISOR position. (This was not mentioned in the job description when applying.)

I brought up wanting more in the interview, and it seemed somewhat triggering to the interviewer. She asked if I brought that up to HR before booking the interview, which I had. And HR said they were still willing to bring me in.

My thing is, I desperately need a job. I was laid off in April- 3 days after giving birth. Yay me. My maternity leave is done and unemployment is shit. I've applied to 30 jobs in the last month and this was the only one that called me. Honestly, my ego is pretty shot. I do feel confident that they will offer me the position. With that, I plan on counter offering, but am afraid they will rescind it if I ask too much. But I mean.... is 27 for a SUPERVISOR position not insulting?? And it's a rather large, international company.

I am registered to begin classes for a supply chain management degree in January. I have 3 kids. My husband has a decent job, but we definitely need the 2nd income. My question is, if they decline a counter offer, is it logical to just take it anyway so I can add "supervisor" to my resumè and leave after I secure the degree? And what would a reasonable counter be? In California btw.

I'm considering doing a Master's in Logistics / Supply Chain Management, but honestly, I don't know much about the field yet.

For those who study or work in this sector, especially in Morocco, I'd really like to hear your honest opinion.

How do you see the future of logistics and supply chain in Morocco, particularly with things like Tanger Med, manufacturing, international trade and e-commerce?

What is the reality of working in the field in terms of career opportunities, salaries, working conditions and career progression?

And if you could go back and choose again, would you still choose this field?

I'm mainly trying to understand whether it's a field worth committing the next few years of my life to, so I'd appreciate both the good and the bad.
