How long is too long to wait for a raise? I've been waiting seven years and have had 2 title (and responsibility) promotions since the last raise. My manager says I deserve it and am long overdue. The CEO says we "can't afford it" and that "there are things that matter more than money." That's easy for someone not living paycheck to paycheck (during an inflation crisis) to say. I don't know what to do. How long is normal to wait? Especially with an employee's market like this?

Above The Law website. This site is great for reviewing big law salary and bonuses but besides that it’s tremendously awful. Every single post is political- based with an extreme left wing bias. Don’t believe me or haven’t seen it yet, go on their main page and just read the titles of each article there.

In my discussion with HR when they told me I was getting laid off I asked if there was a way they could move to another practice group..she told me there was nothing open at the moment but I can apply when something opens up.
Was she just being nice or do I actually have a shot?

How do you deal with the industry when you live in a small state (with only a handful of firms which practice the area you want to practice in) and in which ‘it’s not about WHAT you know, but WHO you know’?

Currently trying to argue pay rise (whilst looking elsewhere, but constricted because there aren’t a lot of firms where I’m based) when I know someone with the same job role and less experience is getting paid more simply because they know the partner outside of the firm.

Examples of things he has needed my help with:

2. Bookmarking a webpage
3. Creating a new folder in his documents folder
4. Printing emails to pdf for exhibit use
5. He refuses to even download Adobe
6. And has barely even tried to learn the main program we use for tracking stuff.
