I don't know your situation obviously but if you are still at BMS, stay there unless it's absolutely unbearable. Move around internally if you have to. Pharma can be hard to get into and if you only did 2 years before jumping to another company, people might wonder why. Also, if you leave, don't burn bridges on the way out.

My manager rated me highest in all areas and mentioned she recommended me for promotion but it may not happen until next cycle since there are limited number of promotions to give. I will get a pay increase regardless so I want to negotiate in case I don’t get a “good” increase.

When I negotiated my comp, all my discussions were around me being a junior and I only accepted my comp for that reason (would not have accepted if I was step above junior since it was low). Negotiations happened with HR, but my offer letter and documents never mention junior (but I have proof from HR saying I am a junior). How do I approach this with my boss as I’m not sure she’s aware I’m actually technically a junior? Revolving around asking for a move up + raise
