A quick check of the histogram will tell you if you are over or under expoxed as others have mentioned. I have a few computers available to me and and I download all my shots to 2 of them. One always shows up slightly darker than the other and does so with different monitors. I traced that one to differences in the graphics of the 2 motherboards. The darker one has Via onboard graphics. It really isn't too much of a problem as I can boost things a bit. The problem would be photos that I upload. If I boost the exposure in PP they would appear overexposed possibly to online viewers so I adjust the monitor brightness. I suspect that many exposure issues people complain about could actually be monitor/graphics card issues.
