Yes. Ask for a raise, what is the harm? The worst that can happen is they say no.

You should absolutely ask for a raise and I think it would be easy to justify. Don't overthink it, just ask. Like A1 said, the worst they would say is no and then you're exactly where you started.

If you didn’t get a raise this year, I would definitely ask for one. In my opinion, you should be receiving some form of increase every year. There’s no harm in asking and seeing what they say.

I actually haven’t been there a year quite yet. Not till march but I see what you’re saying

The part where you get the same and they just pay the insurance does nothing in your favor as net is the same to you.

If its been a while especially if you now bring potentially 8 million more for the company. I say go for it.

They can’t do anything for asking for a raise, and it’s perfectly fine to ask for one especially if you are bringing more value to the company or you have not received a raise in a while.

Hi there. What is considered a good salary for a project manager?

Started a new job a year ago, high performer. My manager suggested a promotion to Product Manager since that‘s the work I’m doing, but that would be a 50% raise. Higher ups decided instead to make a “new role” (not PM), that has no analog in the company and is hard to price via Glassdoor, etc. I feel like this is to limit my promotion salary to something like 10% from where it currently is. Is there anything I can do? FWIW: I have a PhD from top 5 program and am working in that field. Thanks!
