Managers, have you ever given your raise to a member of your team? Is that possible?

Two of my employees were severely underpaid for the amount of work. We absorbed another team’s work without additional compensation or headcount. I was told I’d receive an bump and I asked if we could bring up the two’s salary instead. It was “in consideration” and alas, no one got a bump due to freezes.

Thanks! This was March and would be “unfrozen” January 1. I left the following July!

I tried to this year. I was told I was getting a $10k raise, and I told HR and my manager that while I appreciated it and didn’t want to appear ungrateful, that $$ would be put to better use as a raise for my direct report. Turns out he was getting a raise too, 75% of what I was getting. I still wanted to give him mine too since he is still severely underpaid, but that’s not how things work. 🤷🏼‍♀️

No. This to me wouldn't show what I'd want to see, which is instead successfully making the case for that raise such that I can kick it up and make it happen.

I recently accepted a position with a new org. One of the benefits I asked about with offer was the parental leave policy and was told (in writing by HR) 16 weeks paid after 1 year, which is as good as you can hope for in US. Now I’ve been sent the employee handbook to review/sign and it says only 12 weeks, which is less than the org I’m leaving. What might my recourses be to negotiate 16 weeks when the time comes? Also, should I be viewing this is a red flag?

Im currently trying to switch from the RE finance industry to tech as a project manager. My current title is project manager w/ 4yrs experience and over 10 years of transferable skills. Ive also recently obtained my CAPM. In my current job I dont feel as if Im gaining any of the project management skills. Considering everything I’ve had to learn. My company does not use any PM softwares. For someone in my position would a salary range of $80-$90k be considered too low, or too high?

Hi All, currently Visa is approved, stamping is yet to be done... But the package is 60k only and I heard from colleagues who are already there, that this is not sufficient... I am working at a package of 12 LPA in India, and I think switching is the best option rather than going to US. Need your opinion please
