<prompt> Human: So I started with a new company 3 weeks ago and thought I did well by negotiating for an extra 6k in salary. However after being here and having access to the companys average pay for my position I found out Im making 8537; of what my peers are earning. My peers qualifications are about the same, however in my team of 12 individuals, I am one of 3 that have a specific security quality. My question is, should I address this soon, or should I wait until Ive had more time to prove my worth to the company before asking for a raise?Extra details: Current salary 74,500. Average salary 86,900. Im 26F, SEC, NET, A, MCSA Server 2012 certified. position is Server Admin. Last job was in the Army as a systemsserver admin for 8 years.Update: Im going to take everyones advice here and prove my worth and earn that salary at my next review. Thanks all!  <response>: What did you ask for when you negotiated? Maybe your peers negotiated better than you did. Or maybe they had different leverage than you did in the negotiation for example, maybe they had a 85K offer and thats why your company had to pay them 86.5K at the time to get them.If you let companies make the first offer and you dont demonstrate some negotiating leverage on your side, they will usually try to offer somewhere on the lower end of the relevant pay range.To answer your question, you should wait 1 year or until the next review period, like if your company does annual reviews in January before asking for a raise.
