Is it normal not to get a raise because I’m on maternity leave? I’m being told I don’t get one because I haven’t been working…but they also delayed my raise last year when I was working because of pandemic.

“You aren’t working” lol. No. It’s not normal. This sounds discriminatory. Time to look for a new job

Totally not normal. I got one during my first maternity leave

I got one 2 month before my mat leave. This is not normal and kind of assholish

That’s a dick move. I received the standard annual bump during both mat leaves. Also make sure you’re talking to the right person. At most agencies I’ve worked at typically only HR or department heads actually have the scoop on salary and raise details. The fact that anyone thinks that’s an appropriate rationale for not giving someone a raise is disgusting.

Abandon ship and blast the shop publicly. Honestly it’s gross and other people should know to stay away from this place.

So sorry you’re going through that.

I’ve worked at the same firm for almost 5 years. I’ve received an end of year bonus of varying sizes- my first year, my paycheck was doubled. The last 3 years, I’ve received 25k-30k bonuses. This year I received a bonus in April (20k) and one in July (15k) but I still expected an end of year bonus. I didn’t get it even though this has been my most profitable year yet. Should I just assume those earlier bonuses were INSTEAD of an end of year bonus or should I ask my boss?
