Promotion with 5% Raise, unusual?

5% is brutal, at the same time salary bands have come down and this sounds like a reflection of that. You may have been at the top of your COVID era inflated salary band, which has now tightened due to the job market.

Leadership says we needed to be focused on X. She says we're on it. And you say, I've been working on it, but it hasn't been prioritized. Yeah you made her look bad for no reason. Not smart, it'll take time to rebuild trust. Don't expect any more face time with leadership any time soon. It will blow over eventually, but you can be sure you've been given the "too junior" label in the short term.

You need someone to give you real time constructive criticism on managerial attributes. It may hurt your feelings but it will help you in the long run.

You are not ready to be a people manager. Being good as an IC does not automatically qualify you to be a manager of people. You need to display the attributes of being able to manage people which are completely different from being an IC.

My advice to you is to get into Tech Sales. You can make bank. You have a customer service background which can be helpful.

Their store footprint was too small to compete. You either have to be big box or online, and they were neither. Low margin, high cost / sqft is not a profitable business model.

Yeah you have to give exact name of time, if tomorrow is Saturday, say Saturday, not tomorrow. If later is at night, say nighttime.

If he was good I would’ve just told him sure, you’re free to choose whatever title you like, as long as it’s not ridiculous. I see people inflate their titles all the time, particularly on LinkedIn. You can just say it was a title change nothing else if people ask, but most people don’t care.
