The sooner you know they don’t care about you
Did you try to negotiate your raise? That seems a little ridiculous compared to the external hires. I would certainly push back and ask for the higher rate.
New hires being offered more isn't uncommon, there's even a term for it, wage inversion. It's how organizations attract new talent, and it also says something about how long-term employees tend to be taken for granted. Trying to negotiate harder is always an available strategy, but it may not produce much. To get a substantial salary bump you may have to move on.
It’s not any better outside. Negotiate as much as you can to see if there’s room for increase which oftentimes goes in your favour
