Looking for referrals for Facebook (Meta) if anyone can help me out! I applied for the Associate General Counsel (Commercial) role and I’m coming from a publicly traded company where I have been Regional Counsel. I have 10 years experience in-house, 5+ doing commercial agreements. I’m really interested in this position, so if you’re willing to refer me please send me a message and we can work something out! Thank you!@

You need to go back and ask why. Set up a meeting. In the meeting invite give them a heads up this is a pay discussion. That way they are more likely to come prepared. Don’t challenge the actual amount but seek to understand why there is a difference and what you need to do to close the gap. Go get a certification, work more hours etc. it is possible your org decided if you are not making noise why give you a raise - you must be content. Its a rough job market for employers - talent is hard to find a keep. What’s the worst that can happen - they don’t raise your salary? I say go for it.
Following. I’m in a similar boat, and had my review last month. Last week, another attorney left. Half of me wants to ask for a raise and the other half is afraid it’ll look so greedy given the trying times.
Hey you tried - no harm there. I may do the same!
