Hello friends, even though I'm very happy with my workplace, I don't understand why my boss insists on not giving me a raise. Moreover, he really appreciates my performance. Recently, I've tried to set some boundaries, but I'm still facing the same situation. What should I do? Honestly, I feel bad about it. Do you think this situation is normal?
my boss always said that too, but he never gave me a raise. in the end, I quit, wait a bit longer, or else you'll get hurt later.
Did you clearly ask your boss if they want a raise? It's worth a try.
Actually, I didn't want to ask before; I'm not thinking of asking directly because it stresses me out 🥲
@gercektende this logic works up to a point; if it takes too long, it can create problems. Also, sometimes we have to trust people.
You need to take it seriously, the boss's behavior may not always mean something. You need to be clear. Yes, it's hard, but uncertainty is worse.
this trust issue is a bit tricky, they might be stalling you by holding onto the money. it seems like you have to make a decision right away.
this shouldn't be, look there is a mistake here.
I experienced a similar situation too; everything got resolved when we talked, but it's hard to take the risk. Thinking about it, I believe the boss has his own troubles too, but what do you think? 🫢
The trust aspect is a different matter, but expecting a raise without asking for one is purely a fantasy. Employers cannot read your mind; if you’re not saying anything, they think everything is fine. No one rushes to defend the rights of those who don’t speak up at work. Be clear, and don’t let stress be an excuse.
