Level 9 average salary?
Fidelity Investments I joined FIL on 08th August 2022 and hence was eligible for appraisal but even after a good feedback, I was told that there is no increment in salary as well as bonus because of "Too Soon To Decide" rating. And this is being followed not just in our team but in whole FIL. This is the first time I am hearing such kind of thing and didn't found any thing like this on "HR Hub". So, if anyone of you know about this or have received similar gyan from Manager, please share your experience. Fidelity In

Neither. Or both. It's on them for taking advantage of the terrible state of the job market. They know they don't have to pay more to keep people around. It's on you for staying there and not looking for a higher salary elsewhere. I get that, though. Who wants to be willingly job hunting in this market?
I've been in nursing for 28 years and have never been interested in management, as I have yet to experience any of them that value their employees. So, when I see patterns, I bounce! Too many opportunities to be loyal to thankless management!!!

It’s mostly on them, not you. You’re doing everything “right” by taking on more responsibility, getting good feedback, even helping the team by training others and the company is happily taking all that extra value without paying for it. That’s not encouragement; that’s them getting a discount on your labor while tossing you verbal pats on the back to keep you from walking.
Positive reviews and “you’re doing great” only matter if they’re attached to actual money (or at least a clear timeline for money). Otherwise it’s just noise. Companies know this; plenty of them lean on it because it works on good, conscientious people like you who don’t want to seem ungrateful or greedy.
That said, there’s a small piece that’s on you: staying quiet about it. Most places won’t voluntarily give raises just because you deserve one; they give them when they think they might lose you or when you force the conversation.
So the longer you absorb more work without pushing for compensation, the more they assume you’re fine with the current deal.
Here’s the practical move: have the direct conversation soon. Not angry, not whiny but just factual.
Something like:
“I’ve taken on [specific extra responsibilities], trained [X people], and my last review was strong. I’d like my compensation to reflect the scope and impact of my role now. What would it take to get to [specific number or range you want]?”If they dodge, give excuses (“budgets are tight,” “we’ll revisit in six months”), or offer some tiny insult of an adjustment, then you’ve got your answer: they’re happy to keep squeezing free value out of you. At that point start looking elsewhere, quietly.
You’ll almost certainly find someone who’ll pay market rate for what you’re already doing. You’re not wrong for feeling like the encouragement is cheap. It is cheap when it’s not backed by cash. Don’t let anyone guilt you into thinking you’re the problem for wanting to be paid fairly for the work you’re doing.
Have you brought it up directly yet, or has it just been hints and hoping they’d notice?
