I've been reflecting on the importance of knowing my worth when it comes to salary negotiations. It's surprising how many people hesitate to discuss their achievements and how they contribute to the company. I recently made a list of my accomplishments and how they’ve positively impacted the team. I feel more confident now in approaching the topic of a pay rise. Has anyone else tried this method? What strategies have you found effective when negotiating your salary?

I made more money working for the government in healthcare than in the private sector and retired with a pension and 401 k . I started out making less than the private sector and end up making more. I am blessed

That’s wonderful! Lucky you didn’t get let go in all the recent cuts.

This is SOOOO important. I left so much money on the table during those early years because I didn't know how to negotiate. It realy is important to know your worth and confidently ask for it.

I completely agree. Knowing your worth is crucial. I’ve learned that negotiating can make a big difference. Thank you for sharing your experience!

It is so massively important to be able and willing to self yourself when it comes to negotiations. I keep a "brag sheet" of my accomplishments, so I can point to specific examples when justifying my raise request.

I love this, and it’s not really bragging but I know what you mean!

I have started recording whatever I do during the year so I can use it during my negotiations. I personally forget if don't record them and it helps when I want to discuss about it.

I have a running list which I maintain throughout the year so I can have it ready for end of year performance discussion and it makes everything so much easier

So I used to work for this shady Series A funded startup in Mumbai. Our CEO was a drug addict who funnelled money back to a lobbyist on the VC side. They paid INR 1.2 Crores for their logo to a "creative agency", just one of the many dodgy expenses they made including multiple so-called official trips to exotic locations like Hawaii. Till date their SAAS product has not found a single buyer. The CEO's girlfriend was the Sales Director whose job was to wear skimpy dresses for business meetings.
