Have you ever had a promotion to a upper level accepted but the actual salary review was frozen for 3 months due to lower budgets?

Now I am a mid level ux researcher still with the salary of a junior...

No - but that smells very dodgy. If they had had to recruit externally then they would be paying the correct rate for the level.

Sounds like an underhand way to save money for at least 3 months.

When you get the review - negotiate it being backdated. If they refuse or go beyond the 3 months - type up your resume ….

It’s happening within my company right now. Any raises from promotions are being held off until January 1st. Hasn’t happened before but unfortunately I think with the upcoming recession we’re going to be seeing a lot of new trends.

I would decline the promotion until they can pay for it. Your loyalty should be to yourself and no one else.

like

I would take a promotion in title
even if they won’t pay you for it now,
because other companies will pay
for the new title if you decide to leave.
And if you’re entertaining the idea of leaving,
Start interviewing, and see what salary ranges are specified, then share with your boss and if they up your pay to keep you around, great, and if not, may be better to move on.

SAP did that since august of this year. ProMotion pay raise wouldn’t go into effect until January

I’m a mid level engineer and my team is overwhelmed. There’s more work than we can complete in the timelines that leadership/product has committed to, which is causing leadership to override technical decisions seemingly to meet those deadlines. An example would be routing all live traffic to a feature which was not fully tested, instead of waiting until testing is complete or having that change be dormant and the feature enabled later. Has anyone dealt with this type of issue?

About 3 months ago I moved to a new team within my company. The new role came with a higher pay structure and a senior title. My company is currently giving out performance and salary evaluations for next year, and although I had a great evaluation, I received no salary adjustment because I was just “promoted”. While I’m happy with my new team, I can’t get over the fact that I’m not receiving any sort of salary adjustment. It just feels like I’m getting ripped off. Thoughts?

But has taken over a month to “think” about it. There shouldn’t really be much to think about? Either he wants me or he doesn’t, right? At this point I’m losing money and and motivation.
