I recently transferred from 1 department to another within the same company. (cust rep to IT). I have an associate technical degree.
My situtation is this: I took the IT/Software support job. However, the company would not pay me the full salary (company policy- “work your way up”) but the superivisor said she would try to work out my pay scale. First she said if the salary didn’t get approve, I would get a 10% on a quarterly basis. The time is has expired but didn’t see any changes in my wages. I understand that when you interviewed for a new position any salary/wages should be in writing, but within the same company….. And also is it a common practice to promote someone inside and give them low pay scale and work their way up? I’ve seen some people got promoted with $$$ for that position’s worth.
My problem is two fold: 1) How should I approach my supervisor? 2) Should I start looking for a new job? I need the experience at least 1-2 years.
Can someone advise me in my dilemma. I appreciate.
