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.

Hello folks,
What is expected package for 8.8 YOE, Oracle Apps DBA?

Due to obvious conditions my comp for the calendar year (salary+bonus) is back to 2017 levels although my overall sales are more than double and 1/3 less total comp than last year. It seems like comp opportunity is always decreasing during good times (I get it) but when it comes to adjusting during bad times, nothing was done. Is this normal for industry sales?

I am considering an offer for an AE role (UK-LDN) where the base is £42k & OTE is £70k. The Regional GM has verbally promised to move it up to £50k base if I perform well during the probationary period, but I can’t have it in writing on the contract. I’ve tried to counter offer but they said I’m currently maxing the salary band (L4). This role is exciting as I’d be the first UK employee, doing the full sales cycle & more but I had the same base and ote as an SDR. Is it too low? Do I take it?
