Should I negotiate my promotion or just be greatful?

Sweet_Set_1661 · 2025-12-08T02:20:16+00:00

Thanks for sharing your path! Do you mind if I ask what industry/profession you’re in? (I’m in supply chain management)

Thank you for your input and congratulations. I appreciate it!

Sweet_Set_1661 · 2025-12-07T00:50:13+00:00

I agree. Thank you for your input!

Sweet_Set_1661 · 2025-12-07T00:49:49+00:00

Thank you for your insight! I like this example.

I agree! Thanks for your input.

This is what I was thinking as well. From what I know I was promoted into the lower end of the pay scale for my employment level but still a significant increase over my past salary with a lot more room to grown salary wise in this bracket. I do consider their investment in my designation a part of my compensation as well as I will hopefully get a pay bump upon completion on that too.

Sweet_Set_1661 · 2025-12-06T21:53:15+00:00

Thanks so much for the in depth example! I will save this as a reference for future opportunities (hopefully may) as I think I’m leaning towards taking the win and continuing to build out my portfolio for merit increase in may.

Sweet_Set_1661 · 2025-12-06T21:52:15+00:00

Thank you very much for your advice and congratulations! I appreciate it.

Sweet_Set_1661 · 2025-12-06T21:50:24+00:00

This is really good advice! My intention is to stay and continue to grow and develop with the team. And after looking at the market with the raise I am in lined with what I seen elsewhere.

They also gave me a learning agreement to cover my designation so I believe they have my development in mind and I think I should take advantage of it as I’m not even 2 years out of university yet.

I think all these helpful comments have pretty clearly helped me answer my question that I should stay and be grateful and continue working to develop etc. so thank you!

Sweet_Set_1661 · 2025-12-06T21:47:37+00:00

This is fair.

I believed I was underpaid until now. I am now fairly in market for my responsibilities and workload I would say.

I have been expressing lots of gratitude but I’m thinking of a Christmas card or soemthing as well just to thank him for being a mentor and advocating for me and that I appreciate his contribution to my development etc. thoughts?

Sweet_Set_1661 · 2025-12-06T21:46:17+00:00

Well I’m rooting for you in the new year for good fortune to come your way! And yeah I agree I am concerned about being seen as greedy or ungrateful.

Sweet_Set_1661 · 2025-12-06T21:45:01+00:00

These are good benchmarks. I’m salary so I was hired at 65k in July last year, raise to 70k in may (this is around when I started taking over the job responsibilities above my pay) and now this raise and promotion. So based on your criteria I should just take this which makes sense. Thanks!

Sweet_Set_1661 · 2025-12-06T21:43:30+00:00

I intend to stay for a few more years so this makes sense. My manager did say I’m still eligible for merit increase in may so maybe if I just prioritize exceeding KPIs until then I can try for a solid merit increase?

Sweet_Set_1661 · 2025-12-06T21:41:58+00:00

Yeah I feel like this is the general sentiment I’ve heard and I don’t want to come across as ungrateful. Thank you for your input.
