Hi,
How do you assess your value? Seriously.
It isn't what you think you're worth, it's what you're willing to settle for. If you don't think you're getting enough, ask for more. If they won't give you more, go elsewhere. If no one meets your price, go self employed. If you can make more self employed than you can working for someone else, then you are right, they weren't paying you full value. If you can't, then you are overestimating your value. Your work is like anything else. The value of it is based on supply and demand.
