Just got passed over for a promotion in favor of a new hire. Trying to balance "shut up and get over it" with "is this the place for me?" while New Person gets work I want & have done in the past.

Did your manager know you wanted the promotion? If yes, ask what you need to do to be considered for promotion in the future. Get specific steps in writing. If you can get actionable feedback, it might be good to stay. If you get the runaround, you should probably look for a new gig.

This just happened to me recently. Got told I am doing an amazing job with no critical feedback yet they keep hiring in more senior staff leaving promotion opportunities scarce

In a way. I raised the idea of hiring a jr. person so I could get out of the soup and back to higher level work and mentoring. Instead, after more than a dozen years as a PM (not all at current company), apparently I'm said jr. person.

OP, definitely talk to your manager and directly say something like, “I would like to be considered for promotion and am disappointed a new hire was brought in for the senior position. What should I do to be considered for future opportunities?”
I used to manage a department. Believe me, it is good to be as communicative as possible with your boss. Your manager might have been looking for a certain skillset that had to be hired from outside, or might not think you are ready for promotion for some reason. But in order to get what you want, you have to find out what you need to do.

For internal promotion with title increase... do you start with your pitch first or the $. My pitch will include market rate, value I'm bringing and will continue to bring with examples. Wondering if I should also include how we have been having a hard time filling positions so the market is in employee favor for my role as well as inflation? Should I go into granular detail on the math done to get to my #such as market average for my role the % increase I had for my last promotion etc

Guidance sought- I believe I am up for a promotion during my annual review in February based on some indirect conversations with my manager over the past 6 months. I believe my performance warrants one. I know budgeting decisions around promotions are made this week. Should I directly approach my boss this week about a possible promotion to ensure I’m not lost in the shuffle as she is going through budget decisions? If so, any tips on how to do so professionally and appropriately?
