How soon after a promotion do you think you can you ask for a raise? I am generally happy where I am, and was promoted internally 5months ago.

After talking to a few friends at the same level at other agencies, I’m making the lowest end of what my title is worth out there. I did not think at the time that I could negotiate a promotion, so I took what I was given 🥲

Are there roles posted for your title? I would arrange a call with a recruiter and float what you’ve heard as what you’re looking for and see how they respond. That quickly confirms the market for you and will give you more confidence. Then I think it depends on your relationship with your manager. Is this something you can raise w/them confidentially? It’s tricky when you do like where you are because I have seen enough from this app to be worried to move. Me personally, I would rather make a bit less and never work a weekend but that might be an unpopular opinion. Your manager can help understand if you can get a salary review /adjustment in your next quarterly cycle. And if you are unhappy still, then get an offer and present it to them but you have to be prepared to walk or stick w/your current salary.

Hi Fishes,

I am currently working as an Analyst in HCL Technologies BSERV which is considered as a BPO. I received a promotion to a new job post Sr. Associate-WPC. Is this new position also a part of BPO or does it come under IT or Technical Department? Also currently there is no hike being provided even though the band has changed from 0.3 to 1.1, can I expect a hike once the yearly cycle is completed?

Working on a campaign and I wrote the first version of the script that was chosen. My CW partner crafted it and then I made revisions. It’s been a super collaborative process and so rewarding. We’re both so proud of this piece. It’s manifesto-y and the writing is what makes it sing, so it hurts a little (or a lot) when my partner gets tons of praise from like, THE TOP, for the writing and doesn’t acknowledge me. Do ADs ever get co-writing credits? Do I just need to get over my ego? *big exhale*
