Anyone getting a pay rise this year then ?
I'm not getting one - again - had it out with my manager this afternoon and basically been told he's not happy about it but nothing he can do and 'off the record' the only thing you can do is find another job paying more and then the company may offer to match it....but if I found another job paying more I'd leave though anyway so that's not really much help.
I think that company's are just using 'market conditions' as an excuse to not cough up when they are happy still spending in other areas

first email I had after christmas was one welcmoming back for 2010, and that we wouldn't be getting pay rises. It stinks, not least becasue the price of eveything else is going up, and we're all being asked to do more work for the same money.
Joke.

Not heard yet. Usually pay review takes effect 1 April, so would like to think I'll hear something soon.

Nope. Not one last year, not one this year.
I'm just relieved that i've still got my job to be honest.
