Say you found out that the new hire is making more than you, despite the fact that you have been with the company for three years and you have seven more years of experience than this new hire overall. How do you go about demanding a raise from your employer without losing your cool during the discussion?

Focus on the facts, not the feelings. What are you producing that a new hire with significantly less experience isn't? Talk about your accomplishments, not your frustration about the unfairness.

This. Talk to your manager. The catch will be explaining how you know they in fact make more than you.

This has been happening since the 80s

The honest answer to this is to start sending your resume out. Even if you do manage to get a raise, it’s only a matter of time before the next new hire comes in making more. Go be that new hire instead.

Yup, this.

Hello PwC AC Friends,

I have been on bench since I joined the firm 3 months ago. Now I have got project but still on bench. I have got mail regarding not raising snapshots because I was on bench so i didn't do anything except trainings and some learning. I don't have hours to raise snapshot for.

What shall I do in this case? I am very much worried that if i don't have any project hours to show, will they fire me or what actions are supposed to be taken ? Thanks.
