i am working as a production accounting associate at my company. i went from working on the production floor for $20/hr to this position in September & was told I would still be making hourly until my YER & then i would get the raise that comes w the promotion. However, I got a 6% COLA raise & still am hourly. i make $21.20/hr now.
i was told they still wanted to see if i was a right fit before they gave me more money.
I am a college graduate w honors. is this fair or valid for the position?

Seeking advice ...
Currently working in Due Diligence and looking to switch to either IM or Consulting. I’m really looking to grow and I recently got an offer for a TP role at one of the big four. Should I take the offer and then pivot to a management consultant role from there or should I stay in banking and try to get myself into IM? What are my options? Thanks!

Hi guys, After CAF completion by last week, yesterday I received a call from the HR for the second round of evaluation. So, I attended it yesterday and performed well by answering 90-95% of the questions. Even the interviewer gave good comments on my performance. But suddenly today I received an email that my candidature isn't suitable for the role and they're keeping my profile in the database. Does this mean they'll call me if there are openings with some other project?

I have been working in an interim role as a portfolio manager. I was promised that the role would be mine. However, after doing the job for 2 months, I have been advised that we might not get the funding for the role and I might not get the raise and the title but my responsibilities will be the same.

Its a political minefield.
