In Nov. I signed a 2yr contract to be a Data Entry Specialist once I started in April they changed the job title to Date Analyst. The salary is based on job title and average for it in my state. How do I go about bringing this up and a salary change to match?

I was given the offer in November but the job didn’t start until the end of April. During training is when we found out the job title and description had been changed. Thank you for your feedback!

Hmmm… we’re 6 months in to 2022. I’m wondering why you haven’t looked into this sooner?

Regardless, you should stick up for yourself. If you feel comfortable speaking with your supervisor and believe they will be a good advocate for you, approach them and be honest - this is something that has been on your mind for a while, but you weren’t sure how to approach the conversation. List out the tasks you have been working on that correspond to your “changed” Data Analyst title and explain that you only accepted the salary / pay off based on what was originally presented to you as a Data Entry Specialist roles and its corresponding tasks.

If you don’t feel comfortable talking to your supervisor, find a work colleague you feel comfortable with and have them accompany you to HR. Have the same conversation with HR as outlined above and ask what can be done about current compensation and backpay since your starting period.

Additionally, refer back to the terms written and laid out in your contract. If the role is spelled out at Data Entry Specialist, you have a written means for action. Are there any clauses that address breach of agreement?

Beside Position Title it says Data Entry Specialist in the contract, but on the work website it states my Position Title as Data Analyst. The contract does mention “Furthermore, nothing in this letter or within the company’s policies or procedures, either now or in the future, is intended to change the at-will nature of our relationship.” I don’t want to be let go for questioning the salary.

Would you accept a title loss to move from T2 to MBB? Really good impression from practice and partners, however would bump from Manager to Senior Consultant level.

Up for promo ~12 months post joining, with initial hit in comp being mitigated with signing bonus. Would be a bump as soon as promo goes through.

However would mean ~1yoe seniority loss (although quite early in career)

Realizing why agencies are still struggling to find enough Business Affairs employees. And know several people who this has happened to. One is pay. Salaries have been going up the last year or two. And some agencies aren’t raising their pay as fast as others. But another big factor is employers are trying to find candidates that check every box. So if a candidate has 19 out of 20 required skills or experiences, they aren’t being given offers. Even if that one piece can be easily taught …
