@dearestfuture_me: How I would handle having an E4 soldier who purposely didnt seek promotion due to the 14.5 % raise for soldiers E4 and Below #miltok #military #militarypay #militaryraise #miltokcommunity #militarytiktok #army #militaryleadership
I need folks to realize that promotion is not for everyone. Leadership. Is not for everyone. There are E4s that are already stellar leaders. There are also SSGs that I’ve had to treat like privates.

good ole sticka butter 🧍♂️ :
I just don’t wanna be a leader. I don’t. I want to work, and be good at work. I can mentor and give life advice to newer soldiers as an E4 like I already do. Not everyone wants/deserves to be a leader

But genuine question what if there’s an E4 who is getting out and already has a plan for the civilian world and doesn’t care about getting promoted since they are getting out. I’m one of those troops

They say this but they forget you are entitled BAH and BAS at E5. yeah it's more responsibility but it's also the first rank with actual privileges. My pay doubled from E4 to E5.

Not everyone wants to be a leader. the Army is loosing out on alot of technical experts by this notion that anyone can be in a leadership position

In my perspective is I dont feel I am knowledgeable enough to be able to lead correctly, but I do want to promote in a year or so.

It’s silly not to! If they are at the 4 year E4, where the pay diff isn’t much, they most likely just REUP, if they did and don’t want to promote they will be so far behind every one else.
