I left my old job six months ago because the pay was terrible. Now they’ve offered me my exact same role… at 25% more than I was making before. I’m flattered but also kind of annoyed. Would you take the money and go back? Or move forward and keep building somewhere new?

You left for a reason. Yea they’re offering more “now”, but guaranteed they’ll stagnate you the second you agree to come back. It’s like taking back an ex…..

I asked for a raise in April 2022 after three years with my company. Positive feedback since day one. Learned I was making less than peers at other asset managers in NYC with less experience (14 years). Latest conversation was with HR about how they calculate salaries. I’ve been asked to provide examples how my role has changed since I started to justify the increase. Is this normal? Or is this just their way of denying my request?

3 YOE in Marketing through internships in college, followed by 2 years Financial Operations/Data Tools full-time. I got an offer for $75K at TekSystems for a Market Analyst role.

Just to note, this is about a 25% increase compared to what I am currently making.
