If you feel you're worth more, negotiate for it. If you're current company doesn't feel the same way, find one that does. That's how it's worked for decades... for everyone. If you feel it's  an industry issue, change professions. Changing professions has never been easier.  Want to become an insurance coder and work from home? Take an online course after work. Want become a freelance web developer and work for yourself? Do it! Nobody is forcing you/someone to stay in a job you/they don't feel valued in. All it takes is initiative and hard work. I know this because I've done it.
