I feel like it is normal. I always feel weird asking for more money. Conversations about money in general feel awkward to me. But you have to ask for it because you deserve it and they probably won't give it to you otherwise.

Totally normal to feel that way! You deserve to ask for a raise.

I think most people feel uncomfortable broaching the topic because it is generally not encouraged but everyone should get comfortable with advocating for themselves or else no one will

I did not see much difference in the salary offered and it is pretty much same ie 68.5k.But the difference is current role is London based, however the Barclays one is based in Glasgow where cost of living is less in comparison. I am unable to decide whether to take the offer or not..any suggestions will be helpful pls.
