Yes. And sadly, I was so desperate to get out of my toxic situation that I took it. 1 year later, I still don’t have the promised promotion
Yup. Same as SAD1. They threw 5k more at me but wouldn't give me the title. Took 6 months longer than they promised for the title and got treated even lower in the meantime.
Same thing happened to me 👆 Don’t do it.
They do that so that they can pay you less while slowly adding the responsibilities of the original job that you interviewed for
Say no
I actually got a better title than what I was expecting AND they gave me exactly what I asked for in salary without even countering. I was ecstatic. I later came to realize they bumped me up in title to make me an underpaid Sr rather than an overpaid AD.
