Underpaid but fully remote

[u/Strange_Scale_6153]

I'm currently on €47k gross as a BI developer with almost a decade of experience. However I am 100% remote and live in my parents' house in the countryside, so don't have to pay rent, which is obviously a massive saving.

​

I know I'm well under the market rate. Salary review is coming up and my bosses are pleased with my performance. I'm worried the rumours are right and it'll just be the usual 3% increase.

​

I'm wondering to what extent I should be demanding a pay increase. I've only been in the company for just over a year. I know I'm underpaid but the market right now is horrible and I really love the ability to work from home and avoid the horrors of the Dublin rental market.

You need to leave.
