UK consultant with 8 years experience and top 10% performance reviews for several years now. Got a pay cut last year having fallen out with head of department. Am I being treated unfairly?

Based on the self selected minimal information you provided, yes you’re being treated extremely unfairly. Based on reality, probably not.

I think the pay cut is a sign, a sign for you to leave. They are literally giving you 3-4 months to look for another job. I don’t know why this happened but you need to look for somewhere else to work ASAP

Wow, a pay cut is pretty unheard of in the states.

Was your base salary cut or just a lower bonus than previous years?

What was the reason given for the change? Did it just affect your or was it applied across your group?

Wait as in you didn't get an annual raise or you legitimately make less this year than last in base salary?

Who knows? UK business culture is tough to read.

OP, if you had a fallout with HoD, then either patch-up or pack-up.

I moved cities and my company is giving me 12% decrease in my salary. My current salary is within my new cities range, and I am definitely not paid market rate to begin with…also for context I have always been a high performer, have many relevant certifications, and am involved with initiatives outside my billable work

I’m not interested in accepting a decrease this large. What happens if you don’t accept it? Do you see if they come back with something more reasonable or will they fire you?
