When do you think is a good time to ask for a raise? My manager is a bit stingy but I totally deserve it.

If you truly feel you deserve a raise and have the qualifications to back it up, then it's time to take the initiative and make your case. Before asking for a raise, research what type of salary and benefits are typical in your field. Additionally, make sure you are aware of any relevant accomplishments or successes you have achieved in your job that may help support your argument.

A good time to ask for a raise is when you have made demonstrable contributions that merit an increase in compensation. Start by listing your accomplishments since you started in the role, then consider what additional impact you have made on the team or organization beyond your core duties. Once you feel confident that you've hit the mark, schedule a meeting with your manager and come prepared with evidence of your successes.

If it has been several months since you started working there, or since your last salary increase, then you can ask for another one. Before asking for a raise, review your performance and make sure that you can justify why you deserve one.

It all depends on your situation, but I think the best time to ask for a raise is when you have achieved measurable results. Show your manager the impact of your work and the value that it has provided to the organization. Make sure you can back up your claims with facts and figures, as well as examples of how you have gone above and beyond what was expected of you.

I think the ideal is after the first year, although it is not a requirement. If you are assigned more responsibility before the year, it is also possible to get a raise.

Anywhere between 6 months to a year is a good rule of thumb. Any more than that and you're missing out on maximizing your income over time

If you think you deserve it and they don't give it to you after asking, then you should seriously considered applying for a different job. It's usually easier to get a raise that way

How long has it been? If you've been there any longer than a year then it's long overdue and you should be asking to review your compensation ASAP

Currently working on a three person team in a larger GC group. I lateraled from a different group that did not pay attorneys on an attorney scale. I’m stuck in my old pay scale but have gotten promotions and raises quickly with more on the horizon. A recruiter reached out with a new role for 2-2.5x more than I currently make doing something similar. I love my company and the people I work with but the money isn’t there. Is it worth trying to get a counter to stay if I get the bigger offer?
