    I know some small companies genuinely care about their employees, but any time a company says "we're family," you need to remember that it's actually just a business at the end of the day and that they are going to make decisions based on their bottom line, not your life circumstances (in most cases). You also can't feel guilty when you need to leave your "family" due to your personal career goals, so long as you're giving them enough notice. Using the "family" narrative can really impact people negatively.

      I’ve learned that many employers value quality people and usually don’t want them to leave. If you’re happy at your job but feel you deserve more money, then have a conversation with your boss and see if they’re willing to increase your pay. Remember, if you don’t ask the answer is always no.

      Statistics say this is what most people do. However, in my experience, doing the opposite of the majority can give you an advantage. My employer just gave me a sizable raise after I asked for it because I've been there for over 7 years. It's also the reason I've gotten into my position without a degree.
      I can prove that I'm a valuable asset that they can invest in for the long term.
      Edit: this recent raise is after my pay had already increased $36k annually since I started 7 years ago.

      You probably fall into the category of person that may want to get another job offer for a company. Then you can ask them for maybe two days just to think it over as it’s a big change then go to your boss and lay it out. See how they feel and if it’s not to your liking then you can call the new place and close on the job.
      Ya i definitely know what you mean some places may dangle the carrot and just never deliver. Typically you may even hear or see it from a couple of people who have been with the same company for a while. So you kinda already know what the outcome may be but then you can safely go find out for yourself.

Tried my best to keep the mindset that I should be grateful but man it was hard. One of the positives though is I was able to add that into my resume.

    I always found it as simple as knowing what you need and want financially, knowing your value to the company and being straight up, “I know what I want and if I’m providing you value, this is what I need, if not I need to move on” only thing you need to have on your end is being a valuable worker. Doesn’t work if you’re lazy!

  • @Gsnake

    This might work for a smaller business or family business but not for the big corporations. I work for a company that has branches all over the country that made almost 25 Billions dollars last year and all we got was a 3 percent raise. The way this company runs they pay everyone within a couple dollars of each other no matter how long you've been there. They're afraid of hurting feelings by paying someone who actually works more then someone who doesn't. It's kind of like the participation trophy, everyone gets one even know you don't deserve it. So everyone basically got the same raise. The year before they gave everyone the exact same raise which if I remember correctly wasn't even quite 3 percent. The reason I know this wouldn't work at my place of employment is there is no one at my branch that I could go to about a raise much less actually approving it. Most big companies they treat you like a number and in the case of mine they don't care about loyalty, tenure and hard work. I like what I do but as far as being recognized and compensated properly they don't do that for the people that should get recognized.

    I’m a machinist, I went from making 12 to 21 dollars an hour at a company I worked for, and 23 to 31 at another company I worked for, in a very short amount of time. 2-3 years at both companies.
    I managed to accomplish this by doing exactly what Dave is saying, and this is the first time I heard him say this.
    I never asked my employer for more money, I just did more work. I out worked everyone else, to the point that I made myself too valuable to lose.
    If you are worth it, you really don’t need to ask for more money, put in the work and you will get paid.
    I use to always write on my resume, if you aren’t making money, then I am not making money, so let’s make money together.

    Maybe this works in a privately owned SMB but if you are an American working in the corporate world the response is: "well you signed a non-compete so you can't accept any of those offers and based on this conversation I'm going to have to notate that you are a flight risk since you are clearly looking for other opportunities which will impact how you are perceived within the company." HR will conveniently and coincidentally send out reminders of the non-compete policy and have everyone in the department re-sign them within 48 hrs.
