When in your career or how many years of experience before you were confident to ask for better pay?

6 months but with a caveat. Have the discussion during your first 1:1 session. This is the best opportunity to lay out expectations and gauge if there is a structured incentive program or if your performance can warrant an increase.

I don't think it should be about years. A promotion should be based on what you have to present to make the case for it. If you are taking on more responsibilities or workloads and made achievements then have a talk with your manager to see.

I'm not sure that was the question being asked, but I could have misunderstood. I understood this as asking how long it took to build confidence to negotiate, not how long to be in a role before you ask for more money?

In which case, OP, it took me about 7 years...

I get a raise religiously every year.
When I was young I would threaten to quit.
In the middle phases I learned how to negotiate without using this nuclear option.
Now I just sort of give the CEO meaningful looks and he knows.

I received a job offer from company A and am currently negotiating salary. I have an interview with company B next week and know that they offer a higher base pay. There’s no guarantee that I will be offered a job at company B but my gut is telling me that company B would be a better fit for me. Should I accept the offer from company A, continue interview process with company B and then rescind my offer with company A if company B offers me a job? Will I be burning bridges?

Clawback clause in current contract: been in role for over 2 yrs, it was an internal move that required relocation. Relocation was approved shortly after (over 2 yrs ago) but covid meant the actual move and start of my contract with new subsidiary was delayed, I was paid by the previous subsidiary meanwhile. I got small relocation package. Would internal move be subject to a buy-out/clawback clause if I leave now and if yes, is it time in role or time under new contract? Any experience? Thanks!

I’m interviewing with a startup and the range has a 40k difference from the lowest to highest point. It’s also pre-seed and comes with equity, and health, 401k benefits. It’s a director of sales role so I would eventually be recruiting and managing a team along with building the processes and strategy. What would you consider a fair compensation package? If they offer me something on the lower end of the range, is it still appropriate to counter with an offer that is over their stated range?
