What's the point of career goals if always get bullied and there is no pay raise. Really sia, humanities/arts students are really artsy fartsy, airy fairy.
OP here. I apologise but your inner insecurities are overflowing. In no sense did I imply that you should accept a “lowballing” (whatever this term seems to suggest) employer. All that was suggested was there isn’t a rite of passage for one’s career progression (which was in response to the previous post), and the legal industry, like any other industry, requires one to develop one’s own set of skills that would be in demand.

Even taking your assumption (i.e., you have top-notched skills and your present employer is “lowballing” you), it literally suggests that you will be able to bring yourself to another employer in the market that doesn’t “lowball”, because you have top-notch skills. All the best.
