Just venting

Feeling depressed because I recently found out that the promotion I've been busting my ass to get for almost 2 years will initially come with ZERO financial relief (I received a raise earlier this year, and will actually have to negotiate to keep the same base).


We are also now being required to go into the office 3x/wk which is going to cost me $1500/m in gas, parking, and daycare.


The economy is so unstable idk if leaving if the best choice either.


WTF.

Nooooo. That's awful.

Does not hurt to look as you are working. Even in this environment, you might find something better.

What about AE roles? I do not want to start over in a new company as a BDR. I've more than proven myself in this role and I'm ready to learn new skills..

Sorry to hear that. Hope the negotiations goes well. What benefits do they see in you going to the office ?

No clue, I've been successful working the position remotely for almost 2 years. Not just successful, but consistently a top performer.

That sucks.
I would be sure to let them know, in a professional way, the financial impact of coming into the office will have.

none of that sounds good and there are plenty of places hiring right now that would probably be better for you.

HOW TERRIBLE! madness brought to real life, I really SORRY that you have to go through this, my recommendation is that while you keep your job look for something better, it is illogical that they give you more responsibilities "a better position" and they deduct your salary, one does not work for a position, one does it for the benefits that the position brings, LIKE MONEY!!!

If a promotion doesnโ€™t include a pay raise it isnโ€™t a promotion

That's not a promotion and it's not a company you should stick with. Find a company that values you and your contributions. The economy may be unstable, but good sales talent is still in high demand. Good luck!
