Honest input request. Recent company role overhaul & total comp package revamp, cutting my 6 figures made last year down by 30k, and they added in support calls + prospecting + team lead. Pay day saw a 2.5k take home drop This month. This helped low performing staff increase their income, and pulled top performing folks like me into the red. Do I have any negotiation points here? Each year I’ve been here earned 23-50% more per year. Other than jumping ship, what are my options?

Sadly I think jumping ship is the answer. Good for helping the other folks but not for you.

So there’s no way to make more like incentives or bonuses? If they took that much I would be furious. That’s MY money. The fact that you have to negotiate to get where you already were is a deal breaker. Start updating that resume.

My Fortune 500 employer thrives on people like you, people who have made it clear they are able to perform, are committed to the cause, and Money is not their primary motivator…I wouldn’t be surprised if your For-profit leadership actually attempts to make you feel guilty for asking for more money…as if you were working at a non-profit or a religious organization…that’s where you have some soul searching to do… anyone responding to your post, without having the deep personal connection you have to your work, would likely say move on!!

I'm a first yr attorney at an insurance firm and am in the process of interviewing for an in-house position at a tech company. The position is pretty much generalist, but I get the impression I'd be working mostly on SaaS and partnership transactions. I definitely think I would like the transactional work better, but I am concerned about the long-term earning potential vs. partnership. How common is it to eventually make $350k+ in-house/how difficult is it to transition back to a firm? Thanks!
