I need help/advice/emotional support/literally anything.

I’m an in-house designer. My company decided to offer social media marketing packages to our clients. Today they asked me to take full ownership of that outside social media marketing on top of my current job duties.

I expressed a need for a promotion or raise to compensate for the major increase in responsibility, a responsibility that is not currently in my description.

They pushed back.

Wtf do I do

Hang in there OP. Keep on searching. There's also a job board here on FB too. Hit up LinkedIn DMs of recruiters, etc. There's no rule where if one searches for three months, opportunity must happen. Be vigilant.

It sounds like a toxic work environment and you should leave. Everyday reach out to 3 recruiters or places you want to work, you'll find a spot that treats and pays you better

Push back again. It’s not reasonable for them to ask you to undertake something like that without some form of compensation or shift of other duties. You could explain that jobs with that level of responsibility in the current job market are getting paid X amount higher.

Sounds like you approached it well. I hope they respond positively in their next steps, but if not, I’d consider looking into other jobs if I were you - could be a sign that they don’t value you as much as they should

I’ve got 8 years experience, work at a small, hot creative agency in NYC and will be promoted to CD soon. I’m not irreplaceable since no one truly is, but I’m a high value employee responsible for a good proportion of the agency’s marquee creative work and some important new business wins. I’m at $165k now, what should I ask for with my promotion?

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.

How should I back out elegantly that I need to be compensated fairly and competitively from this mess without burning any bridges
