4 Signs You're Overdue for a Raise
It's an unfortunate fact that in today's workplace, raises certainly aren't a given. Some companies only dish out raises to top performers; others require employees to work for more than a year before becoming eligible for a pay increase. But regardless of your company's policy or tendency, there comes a point when you can no longer sit back and idly wait for that raise to land in your lap. Here are a few signs that you're well overdue for a boost in pay.
Taking on new responsibilities over time can be a good thing for your career, but if you're putting in long hours and delivering results in exchange for nothing more than the occasional "thank you," it's time to bring up the topic of money. Now this isn't to say that you're justified in demanding a raise the second your workload increases, but if you've established a steady pattern of going above and beyond, and have consistently had more items on your plate for several months, you should feel free to broach the topic with your manager.
