Was I misled about the salary range?
I'm looking for some perspective from other RDs.
I accepted my first clinical RD position last year. During negotiations, I asked if there was any flexibility on salary and was told that the amount I was offered was the highest they could go. Based on that, I accepted the offer.
Now, only months later, the exact same position was posted again. The new posting lists a salary range with a maximum that's nearly $9,000 higher than what I was told was the absolute maximum.
I'm happy in the role and don't want to come across as difficult, but I can't help feeling frustrated. Has anyone experienced something similar?
Would you bring this up with your manager or HR? Is it reasonable to ask for a compensation review based on the updated posted range, or should I just wait until my annual review?
I'd really appreciate hearing how others have handled situations like this.
