As in a banking lawyer? And has this person already qualified as a lawyer or is in the process of doing so?

No just banking or finance in general. Not as a lawyer

I think this bowl is for banking lawyers - you might be better off in another bowl. If we knew how to be bankers we would have done that instead.....

I was recently offered a “promotion” from Senior Director to… a Senior Director with a much bigger team.

I’m basically doing the same role the VP did before me (brand, campaigns, strategy, design, web, content all under me).

I was offered NO pay bump with the additional responsibility and NO title change. My base is 200k… and my highest paid direct makes 180k for doing about 1/2 the work. I get no equity because we’re private.

I work for a very profitable tech company. Is this fair?
