Hello, I realize I'm being underpaid at my current role. Based on my research, I think I should be paid at a minimum 15-25% higher based on research. My research included talking to two different recruiters, glassdoor and a salary website.

I like the job (I like the work, people, and work-life balance). I would like the employer to bump up the salary, what is a good way to approach this subject with my boss? thanks for your advice.

You probably should interview for other opportunities. I doubt you can get 15%+ raise without a promotion at your current job. Promotion would be more work, responsible and stress. While It’s hard to quantify good work life balance in term of financial benefit, you can’t ignore that as a perk for your current role.

Have your HR do a compensation review. They’ll compare your salary against your peers, market value, performance metrics, and determine where you are in the salary band.

I’d recommend also looking for other opportunities and getting offers to see your worth in the market now. You should also use your periodic reviews as an opportunity to showcase your added value overtime.

Thank you everyone for your feedback. I didn’t know about the HR compensation review so that is a path I will try. Also, looking for another opportunity is what I was thinking. I agree with a previous person that it is doubtful the employer would increase my salary that much.

I have my 3rd out of 4 interviews today for an internal transfer. This position wouldn’t be a promotion but rather a lateral move. 4 interviews? That’s more than an outside hire, the whole reason I’m being considered is my unique value I’ll be bringing to that department.

P.s my final interview is with my current manager who is NOT in charge of the new department… he also told me he didn’t think I was ready for the change when I initially told him I was making a move. Let’s see how it goes!

So if I negotiated one round and they upped to apparently what "the recruiter was approved to go up to" but it's not enough for me to take it even though I like the team, do I reject to the external recruiter I worked with first, the internal recruiter who provided the offer letter, or the HM who called to present the offer and who I last interviewed with? Want to maintain good relationships with all parties so want to be totally professional about it, but unsure what's best.
