I have been in this new role for about a year now and just found out they do not do performance reviews at all. I know part of that is on me for not asking before I took the job, but I was desperate to get out of where I was at the time. Now I am sitting here unsure how growth or raises even happen without that structure. Has anyone else ended up in a role like this and figured out what your next move should be?

No reviews = no structure for raises. You're going to have to advocate for yourself directly or accept that growth there is basically random. I'd start looking.

Just because there isn’t a formal review process doesn’t mean you still can’t get some feedback. Reach out and schedule a talk. Come with some topics and goals, and see what happens.

Communication is key here. Talk to your boss and find out what is needed for a pay raise or promotion. It’s ok to not have a formal process but like S1 said, you need to advocate for yourself more.

Definitely schedule a meeting every six months to one year to discuss a raise, promotion or whatever concerns you have. If they don’t have a system, create one for yourself. Advocate for yourself.

That’s tough—being in a role with no performance reviews leaves you in the dark on growth and raises. The best move is usually to start having proactive check-ins with your manager: ask for feedback, document wins, and make your goals clear. If that still goes nowhere, it might be time to look for a role with clearer growth opportunities.
