Hi Fishes,
I joined CG 4 months ago and was selected by a prestigious client directly to work for them. I was desperately looking for a change so took the offer. However i have realised I'm slightly underpaid as per current market and experience but the recruiter threatened and tricked me in taking the offer. Now I'm working as a major and vital member of a project but this underpaid tag is bothering me. Is there a way to renegotiate with CG now considering i am very important for the client.

If they let you go then you were never vital member of project as simple as that.

Only option is to resign and re-negotiate.

That's one way surely but high risk move. What if they don't wish to re negotiate and let me go. I would be screwed.

Need a quick point of view all - today on a group call, I asked a new c level male exec if it was fine for me to provide a client with a piece of information we had been discussing on the call (this required his approval). He replied “you’re an adult so tell them what you want”. I was immediately livid and felt it was a totally weird, condescending response. I’m a senior female employee at the company and this guy has already had issues at the company with his tone, thoughts? Am I overreacting?

SPHR exam- has anyone ever been “randomly selected” for an application audit? This just happened to me and the sheer amount of effort that is going to go into collecting all the documents almost makes me not want to follow through.

Guess I’m not really looking for a solution here, just venting.
