Thoughts on “special” salary grades. I just found out the VP I was offered is not a grade 12 like most comparable roles (verified). Also not an 11, but an 11A. Slightly higher than an 11, a good bit lower than a 12. All due to the fact that it’s a leap from my current position. Why should that matter…..shouldn’t it pay what it should pay if I am selected, rather that curving down towards my current rate?

Your current rate shouldn’t factor in at all in what they are willing to pay.

One a company leaves open head-room for merit increases later on like that, they leave open the door to one leaving. Food for thought

Ask whoever told you about the bands for the quantifiable difference in job requirements between the 11a and the 12, as you’d like to “understand the expectations.” If they cannot clearly lay out the difference, you have a Equal Employment Opportunity Commission complaint.

Our company has limits on how many grades a person can jump. There have been several cases where the ideal candidate was turned down because their grade was too low for the position they applied for. They also have limits on merit increases based on those levels. Basically corporate bureaucracy and policies running the business. Depending on the size of the company and their policies I doubt they will change or make any exceptions.

Scores consider the number of accounts that are paid as agreed. Your score was impacted because the number of these accounts is too low, or because you've missed payments recently on some of your accounts.
