Nice to be able to in theory however a lot of in house transfers and job shifts require line managers say so
Need a bit advice
I’ve worked at my company for ten years nearly. I’m the longest serving engineer in the department. I have 3 fellow engineers who I work alongside. 1 is newish by about 6 months. Anyway before he started I found out how much salary was in offer. . It was advertised as 30-33k. This was potentially 5k more than me. Lad started and told me how much he was on prior to arriving suggesting he was on 33k.
Went and had it out with my gaffer who said he would get me the same etc. Low and behold didn’t get the big payrise and got the big standard 2.5%. I’ve had to train the new guy up and also had to show the other 2 over the years the same training etc.
Now I’ve found out another engineer s job has came up in another department which I quite fancy. But the job has no salary advertised.
Do I ask hr how much the salary is?
Do I ask my current boss would he mind if I went for the job?
My next move is critical for my family etc. So do I stick at this place or move on to somewhere else where I can expect salary’s of over 34/35k.

Say nothing as yet, but look quietly for something else. I had my wage frozen for a few years, obsensively due to difficult market conditions with new people coming in getting far more than me. I couldn't move due to family reasons.
Works Party dilemma!!!!!
What the fuckity f***ing fuck!!!
Well done @The Mighty Mackem for one of the casiest reads ever!!! I thought @look out piano's vagina diagram was mad, but that has booted her out of the ground.
Did you shag her then MM?
GK said:What do you mean nationwide? Half of Western Europe, and outposts in the Peoples Republic of China are banking on you now man. This isn't about you any more. It's about them *points to crowd*, it's about hope, it's about a mans right to screw office secretaries whenever he jolly well feels like it. Walk forward, chest out, head held high, cock firmly in hand and face the unknown. It's your destiny!!!
If you’re as critical to the department as you say then just hand your notice in imo. They’ll come round with a better offer.
As @MackneyHackem has proven nothing can go wrong with planning to tell your boss you’re leaving without having another offer on the table.
If you fncy the otehr job I would go and have a coffee / chat with the guy that manages that bit. DO NOT ask him about salary until you understand if you want the job or not. I'd tag it on the end along with whats the flexibility like, are there any differences between the two departments...then a brief. oh btw whats the salary banding or you could have the informal chat and ask HR what the band is but they tend to tell the manager youve been asking off the record. You need to make the recruiting manager believe that this isnt about salary but about wanting a minor change of direction and that you are enthusiastic for the change of role.
I called the Wednesday meeting because the external recruiter told me the Friday before the contract would arrive "by Tuesday".
I'm sitting at my table and I'm looking at the offer (contract signed by them), which I chose to turn down.
Even though you’re now roundly hated at your current job?
This should have been done the minute he found out about the new fella's wage tbf. Complete pisstake if their jobs are the exact same.If they're paying the new bloke more for the same job I'd be off like a shot, go to your boss and tell him if you don't get 33k salary within a month your gone.
Just read through this.. quality! Wonder what happened after...Say nothing as yet, but look quietly for something else. I had my wage frozen for a few years, obsensively due to difficult market conditions with new people coming in getting far more than me. I couldn't move due to family reasons.

This post man bragging about earning less than minimum wageBut I thought your (self taught) masters is in finance not engineering?
Or have you been busy teaching yourself to be an engineer since the finance gig didn’t work out? - on the nights you’re not gigging of course!
Need pics of the HR lass before it even gets close.Not as good as the works party dilemma thread of old
Don’t listen to this grass is my adviceDemand the same money or leave. That’s a piss take TBF.
Although it’s admirable giving somewhere good service, it takes a few moves to increase your base salary.
ReeeetioJust what I was going to ask.
