Hello, I was recently made aware that I am being grossly underpaid compared to other managers in the company. I recently took om more responsibilities, which came with a raise. However, I now know the raise they gave me is a great deal less than what others in my position have received when taking on more work. How do approach my company about this without revealing my source? I have 30 years of experience in my field, have been with the company over 20 years and manager for the past 5 years.

Quick route will be to interview with other companies and see what they offer you, and then check if your company will match. Longer route will be, demonstrating your ability to handle new responsibilities very well, and then asking for a raise based on your performance… if denied or not given good enough raise, then interviewing with other companies might be your only way.

I hate to even have to ask - but is there any age/gender/race difference? I do NOT like to go there first but if the answer is “no” then I would assume that the disparity was due to your starting pay vs their starting pay. Once there is a gap (like in a wide payband ) it is almost impossible to get the company to even it out. I too would suggest that
1. You should start looking outside for a new opportunity and make sure you know median pay for those roles
2. If you have a good relationship with anyone in your chain of command, let them know that you believe there is a large disparity in compensation and you are “thinking about you options elsewhere “

Lastly. Sometimes even leaving a company- on good terms- and going back later at a better negotiated rate is possible. However the job market SUCKS at the moment!!

I'm starting to grow concerned that so many auditors don't seem to know the difference between the UAE and Palestine, which are entirely different countries.

One constantly is under threat of having land annexed by Israel, but it isn't the one in the peace agreement, and Netanyahu has already said this agreement doesn't alter plans

I’m interviewing with a startup and the range has a 40k difference from the lowest to highest point. It’s also pre-seed and comes with equity, and health, 401k benefits. It’s a director of sales role so I would eventually be recruiting and managing a team along with building the processes and strategy. What would you consider a fair compensation package? If they offer me something on the lower end of the range, is it still appropriate to counter with an offer that is over their stated range?
