How early is too early to ask for a raise?
Im not searching for a new job but an acquaintance reached out about a similar role at a similar energy company.Turns out 2 ppl threw my name in the hat. I looked into it and the position was posted 2 weeks ago.Their director wants to meet.I bet pay is one of the first things to be discussed so that no one’s time is wasted.Am I crazy for not wanting to entertain it for less than 20-25% base pay increase?Is it selfish to ask for more? I’m sure most salary conversations end in negotiation anyways?

Complete and absolute horsesht
It’s almost certainly a “won’t” and not a “can’t” for them to honor the salary as posted. As an internal hire, they think they have more leverage on you. And they’re using that leverage.
Not to mention the blatant bait and switch.
I’d leave that organization ASAP (and don’t do them many favors on the way out)
FWIW I feel very similarly
Good clients, great team, abysmal leadership (which is now the third team in 4 years)
Time to move on, don’t want to stick around “long enough to become the villain.” But it’s not easy out there right now, is it?
Time to stay positive, have some gratitude, advocate for yourself, but keep an outwardly collegial demeanor. Keep on developing the next opportunity (applications, networking, etc), no excuses and no selling yourself short
