I'm outta here, Maître Gims
. Does your manager not recognize your worth enough? Give him this unbeatable argument:
. "I want 10% more or I'm leaving; I have better offers elsewhere"
. Instead, you could suggest that your salary is below market rates. As a general rule, threats don't work when it comes to asking for a raise.
I don’t want to work for Pink Martini
Okay, fine, you’re not giving me a raise… In that case, I’ll work exactly as much as I’m paid—no more, no less!
You don’t want to work yourself to the bone for a company that doesn’t recognize your efforts
It’s better to highlight tangible, factual arguments that demonstrate your performance and your dedication!
Just like you, Jean-Jacques Goldman
—Martine gets paid more, so I should get the same!
Your colleague in the same position is paid more, and you’ve decided to seek redress…
If the company has clear and transparent pay scales, you can negotiate!
But if it’s a company with no transparency regarding salaries, it’s best to avoid it…. Refocus on your job description: does it need to be redefined, and should your salary be adjusted accordingly?
The Abandoned Singer Johnny Hallyday
I haven’t gotten a raise in two years… and you’re fed up! Don’t play on people’s emotions—we can’t give you a raise just because you’re sulking…
Instead, ask questions: Are you satisfied with my work? Does my productivity contribute to the company’s profitability? Do you know how long it’s been since my salary changed?
