Manager said that they won’t put people on my team up for promo in Q1 (I’m in a cohort) because “historically that’s way too early and rarely gets approved”. I checked on our internal system for promos for Q4 and 75% of promos in my org happened with the same amount of tenure as if I went up in Q1.

Is it worth trying to go up in Q1 because it’s clear that she’s not telling the truth? Or is it not worth it because she clearly is actively holding our team back, and I should go for Q2?

Yeah, that's going to be tricky. It does sound unfair and unprofessional to say I am not going to give you a raise because it probably won't get approved anyway.

Might speak to HR and ask some sort of general question about promotions and the rules surrounding to see if you can trap her in a lie.

It is probably dependent on the team and the need at this time. What makes you think your manager is lying? That's a bold assumption.

Does that data on your org reflect more specific data about your team or cohort? It sounds like a broad assumption to make based on one metric, rather than just asking your manager for more clarity

I agree, i think sticking with an honest convo would be better than relying on blind data
