What conversations are you having that your schooling is coming up regularly enough to cause you to feel this way?
I am a high school dropout. No degree, I went to community college for 2 years and played cards in the cafeteria every day.
Now I am a senior engineer at a big tech company. I have founded startups, been the first engineer at venture backed startups, have scaled teams, products, etc.
I can’t remember the last time someone asked me about my education. Why would that matter, when the quality of my work and experience I bring to the table is clearly valuable and high quality?
On an entirely separate note, you may still be underpaid :) Has nothing to do with your education and more to do with negotiation skills when you join a new company.
