is there a lot of competition between male and female researchers, and if there is, do you think it's usually in good humor?

I don’t think there is any gender-based competition to be honest.

There is competition between male and female researchers, but I think it is very lighthearted. Both genders want to be successful, and this creates a healthy level of competition.

I think with feminism rising and the wave against it, not everyone is excited that female researchers are becoming more and more mainstay in our industry. I, personally, don't mind your gender as long as you're a good researcher.

Does anyone think it’s out of the question to ask for a 20% pay increase without a promotion? My duties on our team are closer to Director-level and no other Senior PM is managing half of what I am, so I feel like I should be compensated fairly.

Someone bring me back down to earth if I’m asking too much

I would say leverage is on my side considerably.
