Developers are welcome to express their opinions on how to increase salary.

Unless you are the boss of an enterprise, developers will always be faced with questions about salary increases.

The IT industry is an industry with a relatively high turnover rate. Job-hopping is a channel for a high salary increase, but it has to take a great job risk, the development prospects of new companies, the trust level of superiors, the degree of cooperation among colleagues, the degree of technical application, and training opportunities are unknown to some extent. In addition, frequent job-hopping experiences are not shown off in your career record.

If the current work unit has development prospects for individuals, most people are willing to choose to take off in situ to raise the salary.

By reviewing my own experiences and the experiences of many of my friends, I think the following tips are worth noting. I would like to share them with you.

1. Emphasize "your contribution to the company and the potential to contribute in the future", rather than "your own capabilities ".

In other words, employees use their contributions to the company to make transactions with the boss. First, we should show the boss what they have contributed to the company's development in the past. Some contributions can be quantified, such as how many projects are made and how much profit the company has made. Some contributions cannot be quantified. For example, pre-sales and after-sales technical support and other work must rely on their own language capabilities to launch these unquantifiable contributions. When emphasizing contribution, you must differentiate your in-share jobs. In-share jobs, you have accepted the current salary transactions. Generally, the boss does not think that there is a reason to raise your salary when completing the jobs. The reason for the boss to raise the salary is only because the effect of the work in the job has made another contribution, or can be competent for more jobs.

Some people think that they will earn more than others in terms of technology. Even a superman, if it cannot make profits for the company, then the value of Superman in the eyes of the company is zero! If your ability is improved thanks to the technical training arranged by the company, you can only be grateful for the company's cultivation and appreciate the company's learning and training opportunities. This is definitely not the reason for salary increase. Imagine a company boss who pays for your training, and then you come back and say that my training capability has improved, so I want to raise my salary. Isn't it a fool to take my boss? At least, you can improve your ability to make some work achievements, so that the boss can see that the training is not in vain. The employees who participate in the training have the potential to complete more and more valuable work, then raise your salary.

2. Objective Analysis of "overtime"

Although overtime has become a sign of the IT industry, not all bosses think that overtime is a great contribution. Sometimes, the boss understands that, for objective reasons, its employees need to work overtime, for example, the project term is too short and the number of people is insufficient. Sometimes, overtime is a manifestation of insufficient ability in the eyes of the boss, and it is suspected that an employee is not competent for the current position, so it takes more time to deal with the work than a colleague in the same position. Therefore, if you want to use long-term overtime as the reason for salary increase, you must first analyze whether you have a high chance of recognition. This statement is not applicable at this time. In commercial transactions, we only acknowledge credit and do not acknowledge hard work.

3. Be polite and not speak harsh words

Do not threaten the company or threaten the boss to "don't raise your salary ......". No one is scared. What's more, it's a boss who is older than your social experience. No matter what you think, whether or not you have already found a backup to retreat, there are only two types of words that can be placed on the desktop when talking to your boss about salary increase, "I am willing to develop in the company for a long time" and "reasons and necessity of salary increase ". In fact, every boss will consider what you did not say, that is, if this employee's requirements are not met, will he/she resign? If you throw a threat, the company usually thinks that this person will not be able to wait for a long time. Instead of this time, the company will choose to leave. You may directly arrange for candidates from the HR department to meet the salary increase requirements for the moment, find a suitable opportunity for others to take over the core work, and gradually reduce the key level of the person in the company. Next, you don't have to take the initiative to mention it. The cold guy leaves.

4. If the expectation for salary increase fails, seek compensation

After all, not everyone can get the expected salary increase. If the salary increase is smaller than your expectation, or the salary increase request is rejected, do not be discouraged and analyze the cause. Is your understanding of contribution different from that of your superiors? Or is it true that the company has limited profits and cannot afford employee salary increases? Different answers have different solutions. You may need to create opportunities for your superiors to notice their contributions, or apply for paid holidays to balance your mood, it may be necessary to work harder to accumulate work experience to pave the way for a new salary increase. It may be necessary to make a more reasonable assignment so that colleagues in the same position can share the overtime work caused by objective reasons, maybe I should quit. Wait ......
