Request for Compensation Review

Dear First & Last Name,

I’m grateful for the ongoing support and the opportunities for growth I’ve experienced during my time here.

Based on my market research, the average salary for my position in our industry is $XXXk/year, which is higher than my current compensation.

Given this discrepancy, I would like to request a review of my salary to align more closely with industry standards.

I would appreciate the opportunity to meet and discuss my request in more detail. Thank you once again for your time and consideration.

Kind regards,
Taylor Swift
