Well exposed in camera / underexposed after

Hi guys,

I´ve recently sold my A6500 and got an A7C. So far I love the camera, but I have a major complaint that I´m sure MUST have an easy fix. Whenever I´m taking a picture or recording a video, the image looks properly exposed on the LCD (0.0 or sometimes +0.3) but then I copy the files to my computer and everything is underexposed! I´ve changed some settings that I thought could fix this but no go (I set both the LCD and the Viewfinder brightness to MANUAL at +0 and the Display Quality is set to Standard). Also, this is not computer related, as I´ve tried the same files on different computers. I could use histogram, but I WANT the camera´s LCD and viewfinder to display exactly what the final result will be as I´m shooting. I´ve been using mirrorless Sony cameras since the NEX5 and I never had this issue before. This particularly problematic when I shoot S-LOG and have to overexpose by 2 stops.
