Just checked out this Robert half guide and as expected, the guide aligns with my suspicions that I am very underpaid

I left public and used Robert halfā€™s salary guide (not their recruiter) and scored the mid point they recommended for my job title and city. ~95k ...about 25k more than what I was making in public.

If you don't mind sharing, what level/field are you in and what's your salary?

Know someone who worked there and they also thought BDO generally underpays. But could it depend on the office too?

Another option is to turn on your ā€œopen to opportunitiesā€ tab on LinkedIn and recruiters will reach out to you with positions based on your experience and you can ask them what the salary range is. Sometimes mine was in line with what other companies were paying and sometimes other companies paid more and you decide if the extra money is worth it.

Yeah, take the phone call and talk to them. Some recruiters are super helpful and open about compensation and culture while others try to get your resume and set up interviews without giving you any information. Obviously I work with recruiters that have transparency instead of ones that only want to talk to you if you set up an interview with them. I listened to their schpiel about the job and then tell them up front what Iā€™m looking for in a firm/job, salary expectations so we donā€™t waste each otherā€™s time.

Over the last three years my mfg company has had a lot of people leave and each time I take on the extra responsibility - from admin, payroll, benefits, compliance, safety, inventory and shipping.

I thought that it would all come with eventual pay increases since it saves the company over 300k in overhead. This whole time I should have been OE. I feel like a fool.
