Star Gazer Posted January 19, 2008 Posted January 19, 2008 Boss just came in my office and told me everyone is getting another raise to bring us to be more competitive with the legal market. I just got another 5% off the original salary, for a total of a 13% raise! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT! :bunny::bunny:
Trialbyfire Posted January 19, 2008 Posted January 19, 2008 Congrats SG!! Don't you also have a 90 day review coming up or maybe this negates any further requirements for the review?

Author Star Gazer Posted January 19, 2008 Author Posted January 19, 2008 Congrats SG!! Don't you also have a 90 day review coming up or maybe this negates any further requirements for the review? NOPE! The additional raise was done after the partners conducted a market survey. They wanted to bring all of the associates in line with their competitors...clearly, they're afraid we're all looking (we've been suspicious in all going to lunch together lately, quietly talking in our offices, etc.). Boss said that this extra raise is effective February 1, and that I'll still get the 90 review for even MORE! OMG. Such a great way to start the weekend...
dropdeadlegs Posted January 19, 2008 Posted January 19, 2008 That's great! I bet that step increase plan is backfiring among the higher paid personnel. That was a crazy that had been adopted. More money is always good, and 90 days will fly by quickly, too. Wow them during that time and then you can "coast" a bit if you want. It will give you time to determine the future with your BF, too.
Trialbyfire Posted January 19, 2008 Posted January 19, 2008 This 90 day review is a good motivator to bill more hours in the next quarter.
