Have you talked to your manager about pursuing a promotion? Sometimes they can help you when that is the path that you want to take.

I have! It’s something we’ve discussed pretty heavily these last 4-5 months, and they’ve provided some great tips. But always open to some outside thinking

Zooming in:
Chip, chip, hooray.
This week, that had plenty of them buying up shares in Alphabet after the launch of its latest quantum computing chip. Google’s parent jumped 5% on Wednesday, far outpacing the Nasdaq’s 1.8% rally.

Hello. Promotion is about supply and demand, company performance (budget), and management endorsement. It is best to express to desire to be promoted 2 years in advance, with regular check-ins every quarter. It is critical 6 months in advance you have a check-in. 2 months in advance is short notice for the way business operates. But better to express it now than wait until 2 months prior to your next promotion window.

Oh wow, 2 years feels a bit extreme in my agency as most people are promoted every 2-3 years. But I think these are great flags. I’ve been checking in with my manager regularly on a potential promotion and goals to reach that. So will be staying very close with them.

It's all about proving your value and showcasing how you have improved the company's metrics. Go in with data, that's your best bet. Show how you've hit KPIs, improved conversions, etc.

Thank you! I’ve been trying to keep track of my specific input on things (new biz I supported or specific metrics I led), so great idea to lead with that

Did you have to make goals at the beginning of the year? I have show what I have achieved and work in progress. Results always strengthen your case.

I did, and great reminder to ladder back my achievements to those goals. Thanks!

Have an offer from a dream company but I'll need to go in at a lower level. Knowing that I can bring a lot of value to the company (read- I know my worth), I negotiated with the hiring manager to have a level/comp review 6 months after employment. If I hit all my goals (ie, prove myself) within that time frame, I'll get a promotion and salary adjustment.
QUESTIONS:
Should this be in writing in the offer letter?
How detailed should it be? I assume I won't know what goals to set till I start...

What's the best way to ask for a pay raise?

When I was headhunted for the job, ESG was a relatively new concept and too few companies hire for related positions. I didn't find any salary range from Glassdoor or anywhere so I had no idea. My fault was I did not ask the HR and just gave my asking salary. When I saw a similar post from my company (I was already hired that time), they were already including the pay range and I realized mine was way below. I'm already 2.8 yrs in the role.

For anyone who receives a quarterly bonus or raise in some form, does your employer start to schedule you for less hours when your raise kicks in, or pull you from a future schedule entirely once you receive a bonus; only to put you back on once the hours you would have worked and earned the amount given are passed? Ie; a part time employee getting $200.00 in a quarterly bonus and then not being scheduled a whole week during a bi-weekly pay period where they would have earned more on the clock…?
