Payraise.. how much do you expect? how much did you get?

[malachi]

Changed jobs, earning more money. Ended up paying more tax So I got a pay reduction

 

[julianhj]

Public sector here, my role is 20% down in real terms since 2010. I'm expecting another real terms pay cut this year after something just about reasonable last year.

 

[Josh]

4% Bonus
4% Pay rise

Been the same year on year for the last 5 and I’m happy with that

IT Manager in SE

How does that work? Surely you're only taxed extra on the bit that goes into the next bracket, and it's not more than 100%.

I read it that he is now correctly paying tax.

I worked with a guy who was paying emergency tax for years and didn't notice it until he spotted the difference in tax between his payslip and someone elses.. lol

I think a 5% rise would be reasonable, but expect they will agree about 3%. Maybe with a small one of bonus.

 

[gingergundog]

12% last year base salary increase plus bonus increased from 10% to 12.5%. This year company wants to retain my services and has offered a retention bonus of 33% of salary. US Tech company.

Waiting to hear how much, there has been a boost in certain benefits we get so cant complain.

Yeah I've been on X tax code jobs before, I always got the money back, I had the option to have it paid monthly (boring) or via a cheque (new toys!)

We'll get the minimum we're entitled to and a sob story about it.

I don't work in the UK but it's some pension fund the company has.

 

[paradigm]

10% expected, I’ve only been with my current company for one payrise and it was 10%, apparently it’s a thing that they do by default assuming no HR/performance issues.

 

[Efour]

Swedish kommun/municipality (hospital) so whatever the union has scraped up 2.x% if we are lucky :/

 

[cheesyboy]

7.5% last year, across two rises.

Hoping for another 5% this year, but am not at all sure we'll get it.

Energy sector.

 

[moon man]

How the **** are you supposed to live on £90 a week? That's barely existing, let alone living.

it's £84 at the.moment and you have to jump through hoops for that, I guess if I was a renter they would pay that, or had kids income support would kick in .
Also with it being based on national insurance contributions I still pay for everything like dental costs ect, over 6k savings no council tax reduction

I've never had a party rise before.

But I have doubled my salary in 5 years. Which is great actually.

 

[BUDFORCE]

I'm hoping to get a decent pay increase this year.

My boss said it's with HR so been approved by management.

I don't know what it will be I'm hoping for 20% maybe more, I know for a fact I'm the lowest paid in my team and I think even some of the people lower down are probably earning more so I kicked up a bit of a fuss this time.

 

[Rroff]

Wasn't expecting much, maybe 3% but looks like I'll be getting ~12% over 2 different uplifts this year, though it isn't confirmed yet.

 

[dimension99]

3.3% pay rise last year, but a 17% bonus for exceeding expectations on my appraisal. But it cost me my stomach, as I got acid reflux for my hard work

So this year I slowed down as my heath is more important so dont expect much
