Approaching my first ever performance review. Just got hired in May and am worried that I didn’t negotiate my salary well enough, and now the % increases will be pegged to that under-market salary. How do I tactfully get out of that while keeping a good relationship w my manager?

Your job is to get a promotion. You've hosed your salary at your title - maybe you can get to some weird parity through DEI (as in what is the pay gap for a given job title by race/gender/etc by region), but likely you are just tied now to some other underpaid schlub. That means - you chase the title to establish success at that company, and then you exit to new firm1 yr after the new title.

You need to make a case that you’re underpaid. Honestly it’s very tough to do. You probably need to switch jobs.

How bad is it if I refuse to accept the offer? Will I be banned from working with that headhunting firm?

So I get that in a corporate set up, you are supposed to be sharp and witty and think on your feet. Trouble is, I am extremely slow with comebacks. (Think Ross in Friends/Amy in B99) at the crunch moment, I generally end up not being able to give a good roast back. Unfortunately the best of them come to me like a few hours later (dinner/shower/TV) and I am left ruing and amazing opportunity to have gotten one back. I am awful at jibes and roasts.

Anyone else suffer from this?
