At BAH? Good luck? Jokes aside, I saw former colleagues at BAH found success when they were critical to the client relationship.

Thank you, that is helpful and I had not thought about that yet. As a starting professional, I am starting to see that that joke is more so a reality!

Best bet is showing a competing offer

I plan to show a competing offer, but I do not have that option at the time.

I don't see a competing offer working unless you're a rock star and and even if it works, you will be viewed in a different and negative way. Do some resesrch and express to your leadership how much you love it there and want to stay but also how concerned you are that your comp isn't in the right range with others. Might not happen right away, but if you're valued, they will make it right. . Good luck.

Disagree. You can get opportunities to grow and good projects by expressing loyalty, but you can only get a substantial raise by expressing a willingness to leave.

You can pull that move once.

Move as in showing a better offer or move as in pitching a raise?

Thank you ! @EY2

So you're treating your relationship like a business deal. What she "inherited" from her parents has NOTHING to do with you or your relationship.

What would be a typical salary for a junior in house counsel role (3 yoe) at a publicly traded company in a secondary market (think Austin, Tampa, Charlotte)? I’m having a really hard time finding what a reasonable range would be. Most positions I’m applying to require desired salary in the application, and the truth is I’d accept anything north of 125k but don’t want to undersell myself and take a bigger cut than necessary coming from biglaw.

Salaries would be comparable (Lilly would most likely be a little more with bonuses), but if the culture sucks, I’d hate to burn a bridge with Envigo.

Hey Bowl,
I work for a late stage(ipo) start up, earlier this year we were acquired & since then they got rid of our yearly bonuses and gave us an ESOP grant.
2 RIFs later we are almost bare bones. Since we are coming up on our usual yearly evaluations many of us assumed (with multiple conversation from our managers) that pay raises and promotions were due.
In a recent All hands we found out that this year there will be no pay raises nor promotions based off merit. Is it time to jump ship?
