Find a new job?
Unfortunately, I have to agree with D1. It sounds like you need to find another job, especially if they are saying that discussing a raise is not going to happen. You basically have to leave at that point.
A company on the ropes isn't going to be eager to give raises.
When a company expands a role without adjusting compensation, that’s usually a strategic choice—not a misunderstanding.
If additional responsibilities are being added that clearly align with a higher-paid role (especially one that has not been backfilled), it’s reasonable to pause and reassess expectations. A job description matters. Once the scope materially changes, the role itself has changed—and compensation should reflect that.
Employees should not be penalized for declining responsibilities that fall outside their documented role, particularly when those responsibilities previously belonged to a higher-paid position. That gap is a resourcing issue for the company to solve, not an individual failing.
For anyone choosing to stay rather than exit, knowing the company handbook and internal policies is critical. Understanding where expectations, escalation paths, and role definitions live gives you leverage and protects you from unfair pushback. In my experience, many companies rely on employees not reading these policies—and that lack of awareness often works in the company’s favor.
A tight market doesn’t justify long-term misalignment between pay, role, and accountability. At some point, clarity matters more than patience.
It also is smart to evaluate your company. Do they have stagnant growth or are losing marketshare? Have they reduced hiring, had layoffs or avoiding layoffs, suffering profit losses… all valid reasons to hold on raises and a desire to increase productivity. Not saying it’s ok, but also signs that it’s time to move on if you can.
In this absolutely horrendous economy many of us are under paid and when you start looking you will find that salaries are going backwards. You have two options: try to find a better job while you have your current job. Or just accept it. I accepted and I am in the same boat, they laid off a girl who was making $40k more and added all her responsibilities All of then to my work load without a penny increase. When I look elsewhere I find either short term consulting opportunities and or which paid hourly what I was making when I graduated from college
Time to exit- past t8me, really.
