The startup I work for as a low level executive just closed Series B in the past 3 months after a successful series A last year or the year before.

Our customer base has grown about 800% and along with that so have the amount I have to work, manage, and responsibilities.

I’m already getting paid pretty well, maybe 50k less than market - but would it be appropriate to ask for a compensation review after Series B? Or do boards / investors not like to see new Series money going to increasing existing engineers / executives pay?

I’m just working so much (10-12hr days, 6-7 days a week) and pretty much on call 24/7 which has only grown with our growth.
