With the industry going through layoffs and some hiring slowdowns, I’m wondering if now is even a good time to ask for a meaningful adjustment either base, bonus, or equity. For those who’ve successfully negotiated raises (or promotions that came with better comp) in pharma or biotech: What’s worked best for you in terms of timing and approach? e.g., after performance review, end of year, tied to a big milestone?

Timing is key, and many find success after performance reviews or major projects. Personally, I’d ask when you’ve just hit a big milestone. Good luck!

Totally agree! timing your ask right after crushing a big project or post-review is like serving up the perfect ammo. Bosses are way more receptive when your wins are fresh in their minds, and it's harder for them to lowball you when you've just proven your value.

This is a major red flag, but I can’t help but feel that I am missing out since this role pays 50% over what I currently make. Should I let the recruiter know? What’s your take on this?
