New Job, Higher Pay, Now I’m Feeling Awkward

I’ve been at my new job for about six months now, and everything’s been going great! I’m getting positive feedback from my manager, and I get along well with the team. The thing is, when I started, my salary offer ended up being much higher than the initial number discussed during my interview. I didn’t negotiate and just accepted the offer. So, fast forward to happy hour with the team, and the topic of salary comes up. I, unfortunately, shared what I’m making, and let’s just say... it didn’t sit well with the others who have been on the team for years and make less than me. They weren’t mad at me, but now I’m feeling a bit uncomfortable and unsure how to handle this situation. Has anyone had something like this happen? How did you deal with it? Let’s chat!

I work as a PhD scholar in the CEMSE department. KAUST provides all the resources a research scholar needs. Good housing, International scholars, State of the art Research facility and a generous fellowship are some of the things I like at KAUST.

Dislikes

KAUST is not a comprehensive university, with students from so many different nationality and KAUST being a fairly new and extremely competetive university creates sometimes unusual problems. Sometimes the work load is comparitevly too high.
