Did well overall in my annual review and asked for promotion. My manager said I wasn’t ready for a promotion yet. They also didn’t offer a raise which was disappointing, so I have to continue advocating for myself. I’m also below what most SDs make these days and aware of a salary survey about the salary gap for minorities like myself. Should I bring up a raise in terms of my performance, the pay gap, or both? TIA

That’s always an option yes

I'm in this position. They'll just keep dangling the carrot. I'd take the energy you're using to advocate for yourself to interview.

Leave.

If they won’t reward you with a strong performance review, then when will they reward you?

There’s no reason to be loyal to an employer when they don’t take care of employees. Pensions are pretty much long gone. Raises aren’t keeping up with inflation. Studies have shown that jumping every 2 to 3 years will yield a 50% higher salary in 20 years than not jumping.

Go find a new gig that will give you the title and/or pay you deserve!!!

It's hard to admit but I was in your boss' position for years. It was my job to deny/delay promotions/raises. My job was to lie yet motivate. To this day I feel slimy. Even though I don't know you I'll bet you are qualified for both. Go get an offer for a great job at another place. Your current employer will counter and then you can decide which offer/organization is best for you.

Find a new job. If they don’t have the money or headcount no matter what you do, standing in line for the promotion that won’t happen is futile. Their loss.

It’s easier to go somewhere else. No one will take it personally and honestly your manager has used the same playbook anyways

Did they provide clear guidance on what you need to improve upon to get to the next level?

Schedule a follow up 1:1, if they can’t invest time in you then you shouldn’t stay. I have very specific things each of my team members need to work on constantly. Your manager should, at minimum, be able to tell you the areas that need to be improved to make the next level. If they can’t get you basic areas for growth you need to leave.
