When I switched from consulting to a corporate role, I was surprised how different pay structures were. Have you ever struggled to figure out your market value when moving into a new type of job?

Absolutely. I feel like it's a constantly changing rubric and it can be confusing to nail down. Especially when you also factor in location, cost of living, education, and experience, certifications, and credentials… There's a lot to consider.

You are right, the pay structures are much different. I did a lot of research but it was hard to figure out how much to ask for. Thankfully I found some good info online.

It’s a constant battle, I feel you. What do you find most different? What I’ve found is corporate offers more components to their pay

I’m currently in a lease admin type role, in commercial real estate. I make a base salary of $50.5K with about $9k in bonuses. I’ve continuously received 7-10% raises over the last 3 years. I anticipate getting a promotion this year and would like to get closer to $60k for my base salary. I’m the only person in my role at the company and have been a key person in developing our team as we look to expand. Is this unreasonable? Is there a normal increase given with promotions? Thanks in advance!

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!
