A few thoughts…the more data you can bring into this discussion the better. As much as possible, take emotion completely out of this and stick to facts. Do your homework on sites like Glassdoor to get a sense of what others at your level, in your industry, and in your area are earning. You may find that 15% is a fair ask or you might find that it’s 30% like you suggested. Also be prepared with “why”. Why should your company pay you X dollars more? Articulate the value you bring, the results you deliver, and the impact you make. The more you can link your results to the business and the brand, the better shot you have! Good luck!
70k is low for a senior designer in the city, so I think you have a good case if they’re happy with your work. I agree with checking glassdoor for comparable titles and comp. 20-30% bumps are not uncommon, so it’s not a crazy ask. Good luck!
It does feel low especially for that market. On a side note, I am looking for a senior experience designer, which may or may not fit your career goals, but if you’re feeling stuck and want to learn more - reach out! Happy to network and see where it leads.
Yes I was in the same boat. I’d suggest write a clear statement and incl bullet points backing research on salary and numbers- like where you are saving them $ since they downsized. fight for the higher number - I was lucky to get a good % after negotiating but I know I prob won’t get another one til I find a new job 🙂 good luck!
Yay that’s great to hear ! 👊🏼
