Started a new job where no one I interviewed with told me I would be the only producer on a launch brand. I’m running 50+ projects by myself while there are 6 account people. How do I tell my manager I am doing more than my job description and I need a raise/promotion in title? I started less than two months ago

That’s a tough spot to be in. While I agree that it would probably help you tolerate things, I wonder if a raise/promotion would solve the problem. I’d also consider looking into having a resourcing discussion to find out whether there’s possibility to bring in some help.

Maybe this isn’t helpful, but my recommendation would be to share honestly where you’re at in terms of workload, and accurately reflect your utilization in your timesheets. Then continue the conversation frankly and see where it goes

Thank youuuu

That may have been on you to ask who else will be PMing along side you. Ask for some mid level PM’s to come on.

Hi fishes! I am in final HR discussions with Ericsson. They are offering Job Stage 5 -- 13lpa (not final). Java Spring Boot, YoE 4.5/5.9. CCTC is 7.7lpa and offer in hand is 11lpa. Am I being low balled as per Ericsson's standards?

How do I deal with this?

My current salary is under market average for my position but based off my coworkers’ negative experiences with asking for raises/promotions, I’m not really sure how to go about starting the conversation with my manager. There’s also a rumor going around that the company is going to scale back on our marketing efforts even though our VP tells us a different story. Either way I need more money and I just want to have that conversation before I begin looking for a new job.

How do you best leverage a job offer when you don’t want to leave? In the running for a VP job (higher level than now) that pays $70k higher than what I currently make. I want to ask for more money, but don’t want them to see me as a flight risk or that I am not loyal anymore. Or my bigger fear is they’ll say they cannot offer me any more and then I feel like I have egg on my face. Any tips for delicately balancing this?

Have cleared HCL interview. Initially they offered 23 lpa (via proposed offer letter, to be approved by L4), but i requested to reconsider it for 25 lpa. After 5 days, they sent final offer letter of 19 lpa (stating they can offer max 50% as per L4 approval).

Is this just the general startup environment? If you experienced this before, how did you deal with It?
