What’s the most successful salary negotiation you’ve had? I’ve heard of some people being able to get 15-20% more, all by negotiating and selling their importance to the company.

I doubled the posted salary during the interview process with JLL in September 2024, moving into February 2026 I'll be transitioning over to CBRE and again seeing my salary doubled. With 1 interview and a contract change within 15 months I've successfully negotiated 400% or the original salary for the position.

Years ago I was able to get a 10% raise, and that was partly because I made a good case for myself. And, the timing helped, the company was wary of losing anyone at the time. Being able to pull down 15% would be an achievement, I've only done that by hopping to another company.

I’ve been working at a rather prestigious midsized firm in a big city for almost a year and a half now. I have been having a lot of trouble picking up work from senior partners. We are required to bill at least 150 hours per month to meet our requirement. My months are typically only 110-130 hours. It seems like the senior partners already have their “go to” associate for things. Does anyone have any suggestions on how i can increase my workload? I reach out for work pretty much weekly.

In the past I’ve wrongly thought that forgiveness brings restoration of relationships. But reconciliation requires everyone involved to respond -which is beyond our control.

We mistakenly think that forgiveness is weakness as if we just capitulated. Forgiveness isn’t a sign of weakness- It takes strength to forgive. God tells us to forgive.

Started a new job a year ago, high performer. My manager suggested a promotion to Product Manager since that‘s the work I’m doing, but that would be a 50% raise. Higher ups decided instead to make a “new role” (not PM), that has no analog in the company and is hard to price via Glassdoor, etc. I feel like this is to limit my promotion salary to something like 10% from where it currently is. Is there anything I can do? FWIW: I have a PhD from top 5 program and am working in that field. Thanks!
