Eversource - Feeling Undervalued? Salary and Compensation

Is anyone else feeling like their salary at Eversource isn't keeping up? I've been here a few years and while I appreciate the stability, the compensation just doesn't seem to be matching the market or the workload. The cost of living keeps going up, and it feels like raises are minimal, if any, year over year. I've seen some posts about other utility companies and their salary ranges, and it makes me wonder if we're being paid fairly. Has anyone had success negotiating a significant raise recently, or have any insights into how compensation is structured there? Trying to figure out if it's worth pushing for more or if it's time to start looking elsewhere. Appreciate any honest feedback.

I've definitely felt this way. The cost of living in the areas Eversource serves is no joke, and it's hard to feel like your pay is keeping pace when you're looking at your bills. While the job security is a huge plus, it sometimes feels like that's the main selling point, not the actual compensation. It's frustrating to put in the effort and not see it reflected in your paycheck, especially when market research suggests other companies offer more. I'm curious to hear if anyone has managed to negotiate better terms.

Echoing the sentiment here. It's a bit disheartening to see the workload and the company's overall financial performance, and then feel like your own compensation is stagnating. I understand the utility sector has its own economic pressures, but it does make you question if the internal scales are truly competitive. Has anyone explored moving to a different department or even a different utility company to see if there's a noticeable difference in pay for similar roles?
