Been at this company for years, reliable as clockwork. But raises are small, promotions are non-existent... It feels like loyalty is punished. Am I wrong to expect more?

Loyalty isn't rewarded anymore. But leaders cry about the lack of loyalty when they experience high turnover. Well, duh, what do they expect? Job hopping is the only alternative for higher pay these days.

That's why a lot of people job hop. It's much easier to move ahead and earn a higher rate of pay by moving to a new company. Loyalty means nothing half the time. My company is hiring an EA and one person got a competing offer. Upper management told them to offer her more. More than what current employees were making. It's ridiculous but im not surprised.

I feel exactly the same. As the other user posted, better to leave for the pay bump. But also consider the stress levels. Sometimes more pay is not worth the headaches.

Never, ever be loyal to a company. They know it and they will take advantage of you. Learn what you’re going to learn and if there is no growth or pay raises why are you still there?

Nope, same. That’s why I’m looking to leave my company. Why stay for MAYBE a 3% raise when I can go elsewhere and negotiate 10-15% more

Additional Posts in Administrative Assistants

Has anyone else had a mentor (assigned to them by the Company) who seemed to have it out for you? I mean downright sabotage to make you look bad left and right. I didn’t realize it at first. She was fake friendly, but she was discrete too. Some of the executives thought she was amazing, but I had to clean up her work all the time. She wasn’t above me either on the chain of command. Later I found out she had tried for the exec assistant role and they didn’t choose her, they wanted me instead.
