A strong work ethic used to count for something.
You used to be rewarded for a job well done...am I right?
Apparently not at the company I work for. I have been here for six years and make well under what everyone else around me makes. I received a promotion in October and they informed me that my monetary increase would occur in February and my manager gave me a rough estimate of what my new salary would be. Ahem, fast forward to January and no such thing has occurred!
I did receive my annual pittance but it did not reflect my new title and job responsibilities. So I talked to my manager she was of no use, I talked to employee relations no luck there either. I called my HRBP, same song and dance...The economy. I really don't care about the reasoning because they should have given me a raise in October and they shouldn't have posted a job if they didn't have the money to pay that person accordingly.
My manager even had nerve enough to tell me that anyone that made $60,000.00 or more did not get a raise. I guess I was supposed to feel sorry for them? I wanted to tell her that I didn't give a rat's a$$.
I am just really appalled at the way they promise things and never follow through, it is just wrong on so many levels.
AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
hey at least you heard of your annual pittance - we keep being told that HR is still trying to decide - just tell us if we don't get one but don't keep dragging your feet. I understand the whole promotion with no raise - I was promoted in December - finally got a raise in March but they didn't make it retro active so I lost almost 4 months of add'l salary
