Been with company for almost two years. They double employee salary budget and gave me 20% increase in March. Following what Microsoft did. My current review got another 22%. I asked for a 30% raise. I like my company but want more $$$. Would I break trust if I was to receive an offer letter and use it to get fair market value for my skills at current company?

FYI the March increase was to adjust to fair market evaluations. Was seriously getting underpaid

The only reason I am interviewing at other places is so I can get my current company to match or get close. I am happy with my current role, just want more $$. They fulfill my other needs

Get the offer. More often than not you'll realize that it's better to leave than to negotiate a higher pay at the same company. Eventually you'll find a company where you never have to negotiate, they will pay you fair and square.

Definitely wouldn’t tell them you’ve been interviewing elsewhere if you want to stay. Just tell them based on market research your value is at $XX. You asked for 30%, back up why you believe you’re worth 30%. They’re only 7% off what you need to stay. Otherwise might be in your best interest to leave.

Plan is to phrase it the market reached out and i was offered xxx for a similar role. I enjoy working for current company, and making a direct impact to the companies success, will you be able to match?

Hello, first post here. Outside sales, merchant services/card processing. I’m primarily a welder but I work 4 10-hour shifts typically then I try sales the last three days. I’ve done it long enough to where I’m confident and comfortable going to new businesses, establishing some rapport with business owners. But it seems like a lot of businesses see this as a waste of time, even adding services and cutting costs. I guess either I’m looking for advice or considering not doing this anymore.

Has anyone had success renegotiating pay while remaining in the same position? The last two years have significantly changed my local market and the less-than-inflation federal pay raises are not cutting it. I'd be seeking 3 steps within my current grade, but I don't know if my management even has a mechanism to make the change if they wanted to. I am aware of the Quality Step Increase, but I don't think that's the solution here.
