This paper explores the complex relationship between an individual’s dark triad personality traits and love of money on perceptions of pay and job satisfaction for 211 employed individuals. Expanding on prior studies, this research uncovers new findings regarding how an individual’s dark triad traits interact with their love of money to influence pay satisfaction and job satisfaction. These results enrich the existing literature by providing a deeper understanding of the intricate connections among personal values, personality traits, and work satisfaction, thereby enhancing our knowledge of drivers of job satisfaction.
