I'm at 50% of what I should be earning
Had appraisal talk with my boss, I quoted 2x hike based on market standards He said he agrees I should be earning the quoted comp, but currently company doesn't make that kind of money, so won't be able to pay
What should do I here?

Get an actual offer of 2X. Prove it to yourself you can get it ( commanding vs getting are two different things ) and then move forward. I like your boss .

Hi @Sentipanda Thank you for this comment of yours. It made me question myself. I did get an offer of 2x, a little satisfaction of self worth.
I don't know you are, but you changed a life

I did nothing. Now that you have 2X offer critically evaluate and move if all ok. All 2X offers are not worth the switch.

Resign immediately and look for opportunities outside

Yoe? And sal?
