Do you think you should be paid based on where you live? For example, senior engineers on the same team, same years of experience, both working remote but one is living in LA and one is living in Nebraska. Should they be paid the same?

Our company does use salary bands based on region within the US (for example, northeast US has higher ranges than the southeast.) We also use country specific salary ranges. I think that’s a pretty common practice for large organizations and any international organization. As a hiring manager, you have to weigh where the talent can be found for your specific roles.

I’ve been having a bit of trouble working with one partner at a new firm.

This partner sent an email to me with bills for one client of his/hers I worked on and now looped in a practice management person to have a ‘management call’ (prob to talk about billing less..) Should I be looking for other opportunities?

Hello everyone!
I recently found out that I was being paid less than everyone in the team (more than 25% gap to more expe teammates, around 15% less than new hires)
We all had the same responsibilities, I consider I even had a heavier workload (talking in past tense since I very recently made an internal move).
Things to consider:
On a work visa
Non-white
Non-male
What would you recommend doing?
Keeping it to myself?
Speaking up? How? With who?

-TIA
