Dream company? PHub?

I would do it over the phone. It gives you a chance to hear their reaction, more personable. You can mention in the email you would like to discuss, but I'd to on phone definitely.

Email is fine.

Always over the phone

Just do it over email. If you do it by phone the person will probably still have to go back to discuss it with someone else. So you’re going to be waiting either way

Don’t do it over the phone. It’s unlikely that 1 person can unilaterally approve your salary so you’ll be left with “let me follow up with XX and get back to you”. Do it over email.

Took my first vacation (1 week) in over a year to visit family. Was bombarded by emails from one partner asking me to complete non-time sensitive motions, which he hasn’t even bothered to review.

Bad? They don’t do this to the other associates (all male).
