So, anyone get a raise or a promotion lately?

I DID!! :smiley: :cool: Join me in celebration.
Today I went in front of the promotion board, and I was recommended for promotion. That is outstanding. It should take effect either July 1st, or August 1st (I forget how it works)

I’m pretty happy about that. It’s about a $300 per month raise as well. Plus I’m going on vacation for the next three weeks starting tomorrow night! This is going to be a good month for me!!

Congrats :smiley:

I just found out that I’ll get a 50 cent an hour raise this summer over what I got last summer. Didn’t seem like a lot until I realized that 50 cents times 8 hours = 4 dollars. Enough for an extra latte (or two) a day!

I’m due. Our company has a process that lasts about 4 months from start to “cha-ching”. We have over 90,000 employees, so it’s a major song and dance.

I’ve gotten lots of ‘atta girls’ and I feel like I’m doing well. Past years were worth $2500 to $3000. Hopefully the contract will allow for something similar.

Yesterday, I finally got my yearly raise from the evaluation that began last October.

A 5% increase, not too bad when the scale for “you deserve a raise” is defined as being between two to seven percent, dependent on other employees’ relative performance and budget.

Congrats! I did as well, posted about it a while back. :slight_smile:

Cheers,

Yes. In February, went from supervisory associate to assistant department manager. About $400 extra a month plus ~$1500 bonus (instead of $300) every 13 weeks.

Also? Very tired.

Congratulations to all of you who got raises, that is heartwarming news!

I didn’t get either, but my son just got an interview for a big promotion. I’m keeping my fingers crossed for him.

I got a 3-percent raise about four months ago.

Along with the worst review of my career. Go figure. Now I’m in a new role (same company), and have a much better manager, so I’m happy.

CONGRATULATIONS!

As for me, I’ll settle for a job…

Well, I “not” got a raise…
I got promoted to Saucier a few months back, but I was already making more money then the position paid. So I accepted a 50 cent increase at that time in exchange for not getting the 50 cent increase after the 90 probationary period (which is standard for all positions in the hotel).

But, since I hate the job now, I have decided to milk it for as much overtime as I can get till school starts in the fall, then quit! So, thats like a raise to me!

Yay me!

I’m due a 4% auto-raise in July.

I’ve been contacted out of the blue recently for a job with another company. That could net me about 20-30K raise, if I’m offered the job and decide to take it.

We have finally signed a 2003-2004 contract. Which means we got five years of back-dated pay increases in April.

Yay you all!

I recently resigned my job and while working out my contract have been going to a lot of interviews. I have found out my market worth is waaaaayyy more that I’m currently getting paid. In the next month I expect to get between a $20- 30,000 payrise p/a.

Yay!

Same here. Life is good :cool:

Ya gotta LOVE that!

I’m in a pretty sweet situation. Every time I get 12 more credits, I get an extra buck an hour. I only get 1 more, but then I’m DONE with school!

Score one for the good guys!

I just got (officially, I’ve been doing it unofficially for almost a year previous) promoted to Director of Information Systems at my company, with a nice $6k p/a raise and a $3k bonus on the year. And it looks likely that I can look forward to that every year for a few more (it’s a small company, they’re bootstrapping me gradually to the market rate for the job).
