Over 35 years of experience in Electronics, Troubleshooting, Manufacturing and I'm a lead technician for a multi million dollar company. Seems every time I ask for better compensation, they tell me theres no money. Theyre hiring new techs , whom I train and teach and also share my expertise in troubleshooting for a few dollars less an hour than I'm making. I feel I'm being used. How do I go about negotiations to ask for what I believe I am worth?

I think you have to confidently ask for what you deserve. Do your research so you know what you are going to ask for and then show them why they should pay you that. You have got this.

Since you not in accounting where you see the net income and know they can pay you for you you actually have to go get a better job offer and present that to then and if they value you they will match or exceed. Many employerd don't understand they lose money when they lose good employees.

This must be the new thing with new hires . We train them and they either make more than you or a dollar less.

Unless you have a better offer, the “asking” won’t go anywhere.

Value Vs Price

While selling something I believe in, I've always focused on the value to justify the price & leave a little room to negotiate.

If I personally believe in a terrific, purposeful value packed product that commands a certain price- I would make sure it gets reflected the way you position, pitch and solves a crucial pain point like no other.

Reason being simple- If you believe in something it's easy to sell

I’ve been approached my by company that one of our large clients (who im currently project managing for) is looking for a consultant of sorts, and if they hire us, I’d be the first person asked to take on this consultant role. This isn’t something my company typically offers and would greatly change the scope of my role. Has anyone ever taken on a role like this? If so, were you able to negotiate a percentage of the consulting fee? Or was it a bump in salary during the project?
