Anyone here made the transition from non profit/ teaching artist roles into the Agency private sector? You would think working with creative placemaking projects and being a community based person would translate but I've had no such friends in that sentiment!

sounds like you would benefit from clarifying your terms and possibly your story - what is creative placemaking?

I’m in-house at a small company (60 people), started right out of law school about 5 years ago. We had a legal team of 5 then. Everyone has left and we just hired a new GC. I went from $70k to $100k a little over a year ago. I am expecting an offer from a firm doing business law work but think this might be an opportunity to go to my current employer and ask for a significant raise, with new offer in hand. Any thoughts or advice going into this?
