How many of you feel like your workload justifies your salary? There are weeks I feel heavily underpaid, a few random good days when I feel slightly overpaid, but overall, I think I'm quite content. Maybe I'm practicing gratitude a little too much :D. How about the rest of you?

I don't at all. I'm doing four different jobs for one salary, and my requests for more money or for more help have both gone unheard. I'm out of here as soon as I get an offer.

Ditto, I have been doing two people’s jobs for the last 12 months for no extra pay and longer hours. And then As a thank you I got less than inflation pay rise, so basically I just took a pay cut from one job and I’m not being paid for the other 🤷‍♀️😢

Does anyone ever think they shouldn’t be making more?

I do feel underpaid and it was confirmed by a recruiter at my company that I was... But joined this company entry level and had fight tooth and nail for promotions. Even when I moved internally the recruiter said "If someone was hired outside the company they would get paid significantly more." I'm looking outside the company, just haven't landed a new role yet.

Early on in my career, I felt that I was bad at salary negotiations and felt I spent years trying to catch up.

My feelings about pay vs workload change week to week. Overall I feel okay, but there are definitely days where I think, “If this is the new normal, the pay should reflect it more.”

Hi! I have many years of experience in Compensation and Benefits (HR) strategies to attract, retain and motivate talents in big corporations. I want to find a way to bring solutions for startups and entrepeneurs that are already in the need of such support for their own companies. I want to find ways to bring meaningful and practical solutions at reasonable costs for these organizations. Any ideas on how to become aware of their specific needs? C&B, talent management, performance appraisal.
