@emily.the.recruiter: Asking for a raise in 2025 is just different. This is exactly how to ask for a raise and actually get one. #salary #negotiate #careers #workadvice
as someone who actually works in HR, not recruitment - this is NOT how you bring it up in most organizations. You should wait until your performance review cycle and ask what merit increases or raises look like at your organization. Give them a chance to respond, then get into it further. But be open, and if you’re not getting what you are looking for - leave. Be prepared to walk away. If you don’t have performance reviews, ASK for one before just booking.

I feel like it’s the worst time to be asking for raises. Employers know this too. And leave to where? Everyday there’s news about layoffs.

You should have this conversation just prior to performance reviews. Most companies are not going to give you a raise mid cycle

I am finally seeking other opportunities after consistently receiving exceeding expectations, working with the company for 12 years, and making about half of my target salary.

I tried to set up these meetings at least 5 times over almost two years and he blew me off every time. Underpaid and taken advantage of with high production skills. I’ll know never to let that happen again. I just wish I wasn’t so bitter now. I’ve lost respect for so many people because corporate America is evil.

How might you handle this as admin in a small business where you know the salary you need and deserve is just as high as the money makers (the actual service technicians)

What if there’s only 2 people in my department and one has left. I’m now asked to do both our jobs without pay. Am I warranted to ask for a raise?
