If you’re pissed get a competing offer and the talk. All too often people think that they’re underpaid or that then firm owed them a higher salary. You should know better, the market is the determinant if how much you hey paid. Get an offer and then talk.
I got a 6.57% promotion once. I was polite, said thanks, and was relatively new (~1 year) to the firm so I asked if it was typical. They said that it was and acted like the 6.57% was a favor so I could still get a merit. I said I understood and appreciated them looking out for me.
I turned in my notice about a month later. They asked why and I told them I didn’t feel valued by my promotion, but appreciated them doing what they could and the work they did to get me that promo.
If you don’t like it then go do something about it, but don’t feel insulted and treat them with respect on the way out. It’s a business at the end of the day and you don’t know what leadership gave them to work with. It’s a small world and you never know who you’ll bump into elsewhere in the future.
It’d piss me off though, I would bounce.
Hold my beer. During the summer of 2022 when we were having something close to 10% inflation, EY gave me a 0.0% raise for a very strong performance review. I thought it was a typo and it took more than a week for HR to get back to me and say that I was at the top of the pay band (the Partner having the compensation discussion with me, had no idea). This also told me that, despite the inflation, EY decided not to adjust their pay bands.
Still giving 110% effort?
Commission sales my friend. Pay is viciously aligned to performance. Live by the sale, die by the sale.
I received a 2% promotion raise. Still burns me and my relationship with the firm has not recovered. Inventives go both ways, I average 80% effort at best since then.
Agreed
I didn’t even get one though
I got a 4% promotion raise last year
