I will not talk about the normal method of salary increase, such as hard work, serious and responsible work skills improvement, and so on. Everyone knows that I am talking about Some uncommon, but a very effective salary increase strategy.
You can't do it.
A friend once told me with envy, "how happy you are in this line. I am surfing the Internet every day, reading news, chatting, and having a lot of money ".
I only want him to make a joke, but he said this for three times, and with envy and jealousy, I feel that I have to clarify it, so that I will not miss the case. I said, "Oh, I access the Internet every day, and my boss sends money? When you become a boss and spend money to recruit a group of idle people to access the Internet, isn't it a better atmosphere for him to open an internet cafe? I am also working to earn money. How can I be so idle ...... It's time for me to pull it up until noon. Do you think I'm idle ?"
Another friend asked me, "How can I get an employee fired ?"
I said, "This is not easy. Don't assign him any work. After a while, he will leave ."
The reason is very simple. Everyone understands that "the company does not raise idle people". If you want to raise your salary, don't be idle. This is the basic condition.
No appeal, unreliable
You dare not make a request, and the boss dare not treat you as your own. Is that ridiculous? This is true.
"Unreliable" has two meanings: one is that such a person cannot stay, he has no requirements, you do not know what he wants, maybe his heart is higher than heaven, he is eager to work here; maybe his heart is like water, the former may suddenly resign one day and give you Bye-bye. You don't know what it is. The latter cannot become your career development partner without any desire.
Another layer means that such a person is unable to hold things and lacks ability, so he never dared to ask for anything. This lack of self-confidence makes the company dare not deliver to him important responsibilities. The most worrying thing is that one day when he takes an important position, long-term suppression will lead to the opening of the lion's mouth, and the proposed appeal cannot be met by the company.
No one will pay for their hard work for no reason or without any requirement. People always want to get a return. Such a return may be diverse, financial return, personal growth, ability recognition, personal respect, and so on. In short, there is no reason to pay.
Is this principle easy to understand? So the company boss does not understand this truth? Of course not. The company is very willing to meet reasonable demands, because the company understands that "to achieve long-term development, we must develop together. The fear is that employees do not have requirements.
Of course, I do not advocate that you raise your requirements and raise your salary every day. Note that it is a "reasonable appeal "! Reasonable demands will certainly be respected by the company, and the company is very willing to meet the conditions of the license. If the company depends on everyone for profit, it will naturally not go to the day of the week.
Not married, unreliable
I used to share my famous saying in my previous team that "your value is equal to the value you have created. If you cannot create value, you have no value ." You have a chance to create more value. Think differently. If you are the boss and want to assign the person in charge of the most important position, you will give it to an employee who has changed his or her girlfriend at a young age, is it a family-oriented, responsible, mature, and stable employee?
When I was just a graduate, I was so angry and proud that I couldn't find a job. I wanted to do something myself and start a small company. Of course, if I don't have any money, I will promote my business plan to my family and hope to get "investment ". My parents don't catch a cold on my set. Don't worry about investing in me. It's not easy to connect to my living expenses.
When I was very depressed, a friend of mine, who was a few years old, told me, "I have an idea for you to make sure you can ask your parents for money ?"
I said, "I have thought about all my ideas. They are too old-minded and there is no way to change ."
He said, "As long as you get married, after you get married, you ask your parents for money. They will definitely give you money. You are the only one in your parents' eyes. Do you dare to give money to me? What if you have spent all of your money? Once you get married, this is different. You need to take family responsibilities. In the eyes of your parents, you are also a real adult. If you want to do business, you need money, they will give it to you. Now ...... None of them !"
After hearing this, I sneered and thought, what is the truth?
Not to mention, that's the truth. Last year, I had something to do. I couldn't raise money. I asked my father if he had any balance. The old man didn't say anything. He only asked me how much money he needed and sent the money the next day. Of course, I used up the money and gave it back immediately. Later, I thought that if I had just graduated, the money would have been in my pocket.
People often say that they are not married, and their hearts are unstable. It is too difficult to establish a career. Even if you have the ability, others doubt your sense of responsibility and refuse to cooperate with you easily, this is true even for parents. What's more, the same is true for other people.
This seems to have nothing to do with the salary increase, but we need to understand that the company will not raise the salary for no reason, you have the opportunity to create greater value for the company, you have the opportunity to raise the salary, if the company does not give you this opportunity, your effort will be greatly discounted.
Why do you make the company believe that you are a responsible person? The quickest way is to get married.
No house, unreliable
When I got married, a colleague of mine in Shenzhen tried to release the pressure from his mother-in-law and bit his teeth to buy a house. As a result, the economic pressure increased sharply, so he applied for a salary increase from the company. In my personal understanding at the time, the company won't raise your salary because you bought a house. That's your personal business. The fact is that after the company understands his situation, although he did not directly raise his salary, he was given a promotion opportunity. He worked very hard and his work was recognized, so he naturally got a raise.
Every company has its own salary system and won't destroy the system because of someone. However, the company's management team is also a person and will also talk about human feelings. In the absence of candidate competence, it is also reasonable to give the opportunity to the people most needed. Most importantly, he has better stability and won't easily change jobs under huge economic pressure. He is more likely to work in the company for a long term. The significance of a house for Chinese people is great. This is the truth that "people have a permanent property and start to have a permanent business.
Unlike me, when I arrived in Shenzhen in the first year, the company asked me if I wanted to transfer my account (the company had a transfer index). I said no, and asked again in the next year, I still said no. Until my manager scolded me for being stupid, "Look at you, Why is it just a project manager? Why is none of the projects you are in charge of the company's core business? Because you -- unreliable !"
Yes, I did not have a long-term development in Shenzhen, because I had bought a house in Zhengzhou before I went to Shenzhen. My heart is not in Shenzhen, and the company knows this well. In fact, the company is recruiting appropriate personnel. There are many competent people and few suitable people.
I have a friend. After listening to me, my husband and wife finally bitted their teeth and bought a room. Then both parties apply for a salary increase from their own organizations. Of course, they do not directly say "I want to raise my salary". This is too vulgar, but rather shows the company their economic situation, we hope to take on more responsibilities and create greater value for the company. It is undeniable that, after recognizing the pressure on them, the company understands that they will not resign easily and is indeed suspected of maliciously squeezing the labor force. But one year later, both of them raised their salaries, thus offsetting the mortgage pressure.
Postscript
You may say that I have exaggerated the influence of marriage and house. In fact, I am also reflecting the standards of employing people in an enterprise. I am capable, conscientious, and willing to develop with the company for a long time, this kind of person is inevitable for the enterprise, and the enterprise is willing to meet their reasonable demands. What's more, it's not good if you want to get married, buy a house, understand the social significance they bring, and make effective use of them.
