Any tips on increasing a base salary when the current company is changing policies that removes essential tools to do the job essentially making the work day longer, I have approached management / HR for this adjustment, only to get stonewalled. The new policies is essentially making a pay cut to my base salary. I like the place but it's giving me some apprehension with this change.

If they won't give you a raise, I would start looking for something else. It doesn't sound like they value you enough to give you a raise. I would start gathering offers and see what else you can get.

If you're having essential tools removed, that sounds like a serious issue. That alone should be addressed. It's possible that linking it to your workday or pay is confusing the issue, and when HR gets confused they stonewall. Perhaps you should see if you can get the tools reinstated, or replaced, and proceed from there.

I appreciate the advice.

What essential tools are you saying were taken away?

So the company removed the company card and a gas card – are you an area sales manager and do you travel for the company?

Always be willing to walk away

Sounds like they're cutting costs and trying to get their monies worth out of the worker.

I do get commission but it’s very low ($10k give or take for the year). I work 6/7 days a week sometimes 10+ hrs/day. I’ve been researching salaries to be able to negotiate higher pay. I want to ask for $60k-is this reasonable?
