In the middle of a compensation conversation. I was asked why I think I should be paid more, but wasn’t asked how much I expect. Is this normal?

@d2, instructions were included in the email that announced new comp is available, essentially an online form. @d1, next steps involve the service line partners discussion/approval. @d4, is this how it went for you too?

@D1, fixed typo and spelled out acronyms

When did you have your discussion and how did it end ....

About a week ago. They asked and listened to my reasons (prior experience/current performance) and agreed that it made sense. It was with an initial contact, don’t think that’s the person making the decisions though.

How did you initiate this?

So what are the next steps

🍿

Forget the raise OP. Expect a difference only if you have a 1 next year and meet the util. Same situation here.

Hi folks, I recently applied for a new role in EMEA for a Specialist Solutions Architect. Got through n received an offer letter. But seems like the base is a bit lower than what i saw online in a couple of places (not sure of years of experience there though). Is it worth it to bring it up and ask the HM to raise an exception? How much time will this take? Is it a risk? Already the entire process has dragged on cause of delays on recruitment's part etc. Any advice or insight would be helpful!
