Has anyone here renegotiated their salary after a short time being in a role? I accepted a position and I like what I do but I realize that the workload requires a lot to see success and I feel a bit burned out already with my 40 hours/week and occasional extra 30 minutes to an hour a day.

I am stuck between putting in my time and showing my value and asking for an increase to validate doing so to avoid job hopping after a year or so.

I am in the same boat as you currently. I am so underpaid but I had no experience when I accepted the position. I know I bring a lot of value and I know everyone else knows it too. Not sure what to do!

Is the job different than as described during your interview? I think if the job has A,B,C extra duties that weren’t described then you may have a case. However if the job is just more tedious than you imagined I don’t think so.

You seem to have some very valid concerns, but I would suggest thinking more about it. If your concern is feeling burned out, more money isn't likely to reduce that.

Every time I speak to my director (at least twice a week), he works in how he is getting older into the conversation(humorously). For instance, he forgot something non-work related, said “sign of old age”. He recently told a story, said, this is how old people talk. He likes to come across as a grandfatherly figure, but I’m not sure what to say in these encounters. It is always an innocent, non work related context. Have you guys experienced this ? What is an appropriate response ?
