Just make sure it’s you that has grown and not your ego.

Everyone else is getting paid more. Is my ego too big if I am asking to be brought up to the new baseline?

No, you absolutely should. Just be aware that a lot of places suck when it comes to getting raises. Go for it, but have an exit plan in your back pocket. Good luck bro.

I brought it up immediately upon finding out. All I can tell you is they gave me a reason why I didn't get one. I feel like my project team has been giving me the cold shoulder since. I can't imagine that they'll give me a complete freeze out. I like the company and I feel like it fits, but this project feels cursed. There are more problems than just the compensation. There's still a few months left before I can ask for a reassignment. Just have to remember to leave work at work.
