If You Can’t Get An Increase In Salary Due To Inflation, Ask For This Instead
The thought process of management is that if they give you a raise, they’ll have to do it for everyone. They’ll say it's too expensive, especially as their business costs are rising too. The part that’s not said out loud is that they feel the job market will worsen and the odds are high that you won’t jump ship, as you'll be the last one hired and first fired when things go south.If you can’t get a pay increase, think of things to ask for that would improve your work life.
Decide the most critical factors for you, then push for them. If you don’t receive any of these or other benefits, it shows that your company takes you for granted. It's almost as if they are daring you to leave. Some companies prefer to make life uncomfortable for workers, so they depart of their own volition. With attrition, businesses won’t attract the headlines, touting the number of people laid off. They also may not have to pay severance packages.
If this is the case, start a covert job search. Be careful, as in challenging times, word may get back to your boss, and there could be a chance that you get fired. They’d rationalize the termination by contending that the company needed to rightsize, and since you’ve shown that you want to leave, they’ll gladly show you out the door.
