Probs a silly question but has anyone gotten a salary adjustment due to inflation? I got my offer letter in Dec 2021 and started with the firm a couple months ago, so I’m not eligible for a promotion or VC yet, but obviously inflation has skyrocketed since I accepted the offer. I’m not sure if there’s anything I can do but wanted to ask in case anyone has experience with this. (Mostly asking because of an impending rent increase 😅)

I feel you, I negotiated a higher salary for a promotion offer because of inflation but I had to be really insistent. The best you can do is bring it up with your leadership, you could let them know it is Q4 now and you would like to understand how the company addresses cost of living increases annually.
