Annual Payrise

[Guest2]

I have just received an annual pay salary letter and have received a 2% increase. I find this actually insulting to say what I have done and how my performance has been this year

I will be having words with my manager as it says it takes into consideration performance - it clearly doesn't

Has anyone else received salary letters?

NHS pay freeze - 2% would be great

Depends what sector you work in, how busy it is and how easy it would be to find a new job.

I'd take 2% over no job, or bust company.

Plenty of people won't receive a penny so consider that before you throw all the toys out of the pram.

Depending on what size your company is a lot of companies just issue a blanket cost of living increase somewhere between 1% and 4% or whatever.

Welcome to the recession.

Only an 8% rise for me this year **sigh**

The NHS has just had a 1% inflationary increase, on top of the usual yearly increment.

You need to man up and show him who's boss.... Oh wait....

My pay rise is in-line with the minimum wage increase.

Maybe it does take performance into consideration, exceptional performance get 2%, everyone else gets nothing? Sounds fairly reasonable considering most people get nothing regardless at the moment.. What do you do?

What were you expecting, and how well did you perform?

I thought the national minimum wage only went up 2%?

 

[Yaayuh!]

I thought the national minimum wage only went up 2%?

Haha!

[jamiehavok]

people on hourly wages tend to get a bit of a pay rise each year due to minimum wage increase and inflation, its nothing personal....

Unfortunately, that's not for you to decide.

That's sub inflation, and increments are separate from a payrise.
