Hello! I just wanted to rant about my bad day, but I was wondering if anyone had a similar experience...
I work full-time and am fairly green at my communications career. In February, I learned that people were being shifted around, and that I would have to fill in for two senior positions as they looked for candidates to fill them. They still haven't been filled, and I remain non-senior.
Today, I had my performance review, which was entirely positive (think terms like "rock star" and references to the "herculean" task I had tackled in February "with a smile.") However, I learned that my job gives everyone the same standard raise percentage.
For me, the yearly pay increase amounted to a three-digit number. I was counting on more... A LOT more, given the fact that I'm currently subbing in a position $20k above my pay grade.
So I think I want to leave and seek a new job that will treat me better. But, obviously, I'm pregnant. Is this ethical? Has anyone done this? What would you do?
