I'd wait until review time. It sucks, but the negotiating ship has sailed now that you've started and they have all the leverage.
I know! I know! I hate it! Thank you!
How long have you been in this role? I don’t know that you have to wait a full year until your review. Are you on like a 90 day trial? Because then once you successfully get past that you could bring up the salary question.
I’ve been in the role since Nov 2025, so a little under 6 months. I’ve had a 90-day check in with manager & that went well. However salary numbers didn’t come up. Also the company distributes raises & such in Aug so I’m waiting to see how that goes. Maybe it will bring me up to where I need to be salary wise! Usually I’m on point about calculating a financial cushion when negotiating salary. However I’ve had a lot going on family wise recently & was seeking to leave a toxic work environment! I was glad to get an offer to bounce! 🤣
The same thing happened to me. From the beginning, they were firm that the top of the range was 110. Literally one of the first things they said in the interview process. Once I got the job and logged into workday, I saw the range for my Role actually went up to like 122. I was so annoyed about it, but didn’t think there was much I could do fast forward to now. My raise was only 3% so now I’m up to 113 K… And their Max has now grown to 126. I’ve been there about a year and I’m already looking for a new role. Strictly because of money. Lesson learned I should have negotiated.
Wow! I did negotiate, however the original salary offered was $100k, I asked slightly over & it was given. Now due to cost of things going up & such I feel like I should’ve started around $108-$110 to have myself some cushion. I was leaving a toxic work situation & glad to be able to leave on my own accord so I didn’t press to hard on the number. As the other reply mentioned I’m waiting for review time, as the new company offers annual increase & profit sharing so hopefully that will catch me up & I won’t feel the tightness too long. Thx!
