Does everyone think they are being paid what they are worth?

If you do, then you are. One should always believe they are worth more than they are being paid, but that doesn't mean they should hold back or "dumb down" their performance. In the end, you work to please yourself and fortunately get someone else to pay you to do that.

I wouldn't think I’m being paid what I’m worth even if I’m overpaid compared to my peers. Truth is humans can never be satisfied but I have some perks that I can't argue with.

Yes and no. I think my salary leaves something to be desired, but I do get a lot of other perks that make up for it somewhat. Unlimited PTO and great benefits are a bonus, plus my coworkers are great and leadership is supportive. I'm getting by so I don't know if I should ask for a raise, I'm fairly satisfied by the balance.

No

Yes

I interviewed at KPMG on 11/14 and got a verbal offer the next day but since then waiting to hear from them. Been following up continuously but the partners are not replying it seems. In the meanwhile i have an offer from BT offering 90k for 4 yrs of experience which seems to be fair. I am just unsure whether to accept the offer as I was waiting for kpmg reply as I want B4 on my resume which apparently is a big deal. Is BT also good on resume for future employers ??
