I love my kiddos but after more than two to three days dealing with them around the clock I am happy happy to get back to work. I don’t generally enjoy traveling away from them but leaving and going to work all day is nice. But I am also in the thick of toddler years so there’s lots of pain in the ass behaviors to deal with right now....

3 years ago I asked for a compensation review/raise, went through what felt like a ridiculous 8 MONTH long process of defending why it was warranted, only to be told no. 3 months ago I asked again and it has gone nowhere. I should add that salary bands are kept secret and I have no clue what the range for my position is. There are a decent amount of benefits in my position, the biggest being WLB, which is what has kept me here for so long. But I’m getting frustrated. What would you do?
