tks for reply.

just to share, ive been in same coy for 10+ years, perennial band 3+ and once in a blue moon hit PR2 rating.

1. based on those years increments, my pay is below mkt rate

2. ive listed all the impt work, projects, achievements during my time. to buffer for 1. where they thought pr3 is what i deserved yet this kind of exposure/achievements would not be easily found in another potential pr3 candidate

3. even tho im pr3 ive promoted twice in last 5 years (im on the edge of year 6 now)

4. based on pr3 on 6k , 15.5 = 93kpa

5. asking for 6-6.5 so they try to counter wif lowest @ 6 then i can still hit my expected of low 90s

6. im 2 mths away from my VB which based on pr3 wld be 2.5. if i tender this mth, ill miss out on this + increment expected ard $2xx so my pay in 2mths time wld be 52xx




maybe im just over thinking and doing all sorts of things but anyone would exercise similar care and buffer for nego back n forth?

i never used to to do this when i was younger and really missed out heaps opportunities for decent remuneration (was drawing 1.7 in 2000, 2.5 in 2005)

appreciate your sharings too!
