I have a IT job here in the Northeast...sort of a Help Desk/Technician role. When I started at the company I did everything in my job description asked of, and pretty well too (a little biased of course). Since in the two years I joined I have taken on more responsibilities...I am now the administrator of the Microsoft SCCM 2007 infrastructure covering 10 sites. I have also run our company wide PC Upgrade project to upgrade over 600 PC's @ 7 sites in the last two years.
The two reasons above are a from a few of he activities, responsibilities I have taken on and done well since . When I started the salary I received was within the range of the market at the time, perhaps a bit low. I have been there for two years. But now I feel a raise is warranted given the increased contributions to the department.
I will do the research. Local market conditions, salaries for my type of work, etc. Present my case in a calm fashion. I am doing the research portion now...
How about YOU? How/what did you research for your raise request? How did you present your case? Did you get shot down, get your raise? Whats the biggest no-no?
Please share your experiences...it will help me make a list of do's and don't dont's. Thanks!!
