I definitely do not want to burn a bridge by attempting to force management to pay me more. I would like to show them that I am worth more than what I am receiving. The last thing I want to try to do is "bully" management into a hostile relationship. As I do that, my networks are fairly active and they understand my capabilities. I will continue my search outside for other opportunities to cover the worst case scenario. My only logical unemotional hindrance for leaving my company for greener pastures is that I would like to build up good foundation of credible experience over more than just one years time. I want to have a longer record that shows my continuous improvement and dedication to innovative solutions, such that future employers or top tier MBA programs will have no problem realizing my potential. Thanks everyone for the multiple points of view. I have been taking everyone's opinion into consideration.
