May 22, 2013 at 14:25 comment added shauneba Thanks for replying, everybody! It's mainly because the company doesn't offer flexible working, which is something I really want. I asked for it in my last appraisal and was given it informally by one manager, but then subsequently denied it by a different manager. I feel that I've become more integral to the company in the last year, building some important products and taking on new responsibilities, so I think I'm in a better position to negotiate full flexible working.
May 22, 2013 at 14:02 comment added Onno Well, I'm assuming that the reneg will usually include inflation compentation. Usually a pay raise is nominal. A real pay raise (in the economic sense of the word) is always nice but might not be as attainable.
May 22, 2013 at 14:01 comment added Juha Untinen Yearly pay raise? Ooh, how I wish there were things like that here...
May 22, 2013 at 13:59 comment added Onno If you're very eager to have that interview earlier than usual, I'd get the impression that you want your yearly pay raise early. This might come across as pushy. Are there any good reasons to make this happen? (i.e. big achievements or a lot of overtime) What are the other issues you want to discuss? Do you think that there might be ways you can discuss the other issues outside of your appraisal interview?
May 22, 2013 at 13:22 comment added Dave Johnson I worked at a place with a similar setup in the past, except if we wanted a review we had to ask for it. It was a family run business, and anniversaries were announced via company-wide email. I would reply to that email (sending only to my boss) asking for the review. If you don't make it confrontational then it will not be confrontational. Just be polite.
