Is 85K base salary a fair offer for an MS&T Process engineer at Moderna or Takeda in Massachusetts? I have 2 YOE in process development and need help evaluating an offer. Based on Glassdoor salary insights it seems some people are getting above 90K?

If you're in Boston, I'd say that's likely a bit low. If in a lower COL area, it's probably fine. Plus, you're still pretty junior at 2 YOE.

At my firm the annual compensation call comes from one of the partners notifying you of your bonus and salary increase.

If I believe I am underpaid, when should I negotiate for a high salary? Should I thank the partner, and ask to schedule a follow up meeting in a few days? Should I mention right away that I am looking for a higher base? My ratings are always great.

My firm does not offer "bands", so it is difficult to know what colleagues are getting paid (I am using info from Glassdoor).
