Hello, after doing some research I believe I’m being underpaid. About 4 months ago HR did a market analysis for my role. They bumped my salary for about $2k. I’m a mid-level Executive assistant with 6 years of experience and currently supporting 5 executives at a fortune 50 company. One C level and 4 Vice Presidents. I’m currently making $61,000 with bonus included. Based on my research I should at least be making $71,400. I have a check in with my boss tomorrow and I am asking for a raise.

Good luck! I would make sure go into that meeting with some data behind you - not only salary data, but hard data/examples of what you do that adds value. It helps if those examples in your research match what you do. Because this might be a long conversation, a routine check-in may not be the right time. Perhaps gather all this data and examples and put another meeting on your boss's calendar so that they aren't blindsided by the ask.

How did it go, OP? Did you talk about it with your boss? I think your base doesn't match your role. You should be making more.
