Honestly, I would wait. I did it and it ended up being a big hassle. In the long run I wish I had just waited to change it all over.

I would wait. It can be a pain to explain and provide documentation to HR on why you have a different last name.

Waiting would be the best option. I had to explain everything too many times during the process.

I’m a female CAD employee working for a US company. I was poached from a competitor a couple of years ago and was offered more than my male colleague (US based) at the time of the offer so my boss brought him up after the fact to ensure fairness. He started a couple weeks before me. Fast forward to now, and my male colleague and I are both being considered for promotions, with me getting a higher role based on my efforts/performance, but less pay in USD terms. Excuse was location is the factor..
