Where the hell do you work? 88k?!

But without having the title, itโ€™s also harder to jump for a promotion. With that said Iโ€™m sure OP can get over $100k easily by lateral moving alone

You should be clear with your coach and RL that you will be expecting SC work only, and clear direct feedback as to why you have not been promoted.
I see this happen too often where there might be a blind spot cut no one has the balls to give the feedback, or they want you to stay at that level because it's good for engagement economics.
Put this on your leadership's lap top figure out, and begin looking elsewhere.

Quiet quit the tasks that are above your pay grade/role

Jump ship! โš“๏ธ

Same, jumping. You need to jump and they will keep dragging you.

Jump

Yikes. Iโ€™m an analyst @ 100K

Damn what COL city and offering?

Absolutely time to jump ship.

88k???? GTFO of there ๐Ÿ˜ณ

Jumpppppp

You're being screwed over. When would the new promo cycle happen in your firm? If more than 6 months from now I'd exit if I were you.

Harsh reality is that managers also manage people and mentor. Until you can advocate for yourself you shouldnโ€™t mentor or manage people.

You know itโ€™s directors who decide staffing on their projects? The truth is you know nothing / not enough to be giving advice on this matter. Iโ€™m good enough to keep getting good performance reviews and projects to manage. If the firm didnโ€™t think I was, I would be a senior associate with no one reporting to me vs. 7 people.

I assume youโ€™re at KPMG, give your title. Donโ€™t let them dangle the carrot in front of you, and youโ€™re way underpaid

Nah KPMG advisory pays first year associate 90K now right out of school

Even for pre-covid homegrown SA, thereโ€™s no way anyone up for manager is still at 88K
