The intestines are filled with regret! ! ! ! !

Graduated from a bachelor’s program in chemical engineering and technology 3 years ago (graduated in 2013), based in Beijing; performs technical support tasks, with a monthly income of 4700 yuan, no bonuses or benefits. I recently asked my boss for a raise, and was firmly rejected. I remember at the beginning of the year, a environmental protection company offered me a position as a process engineer, with a salary of 6,000 after taxes, plus social insurance and welfare benefits. There were also holiday allowances and an annual bonus in addition to the February salary; I declined the offer. At that time, I thought that my boss would be able to offer me a salary of 6,000 this year as well. Now they’re deeply regretful! ! ! !
Anyway, there’s no going back now~. Let’s think about the future~~
Should I? Where are there so many shoulds? Looking for a job is a process of negotiation between an individual and a company. If they say you can do it, then you can; even if you can’t, it’s still fine. . . I’ve met people around me, and I’ve also heard from those in the industry – there are countless cases where employees don’t get their promised salaries after starting work. . .
Hehe, expectations didn’t come true; expectations are always beautiful.
Choice is more important than effort; at the same time, don’t overemphasize your contributions within the team
How are you sure that your current boss will give you 6,000 this year as well? Was it the boss who promised it, or was it your own decision? ?
It’s fine even without 6000, more or less :'(
You don’t understand what I mean. If the boss had agreed to your request back then, it means he is an unreliable person; you can quit then； If you imagine that your boss will give you a raise, it means you are overestimating your own contributions; you need to reevaluate yourself! !
Hehe, I guess this is the difference between ideals and reality. My previous job was in a different industry; because I was interested in it, I turned down another job in my own industry that offered almost double the salary. The employer promised a starting salary of 3000, with an increase to over 4000 after becoming a regular employee, and said it would be higher than my expectations. Although it was far less than what I earned in my first job, I thought it was acceptable. But in reality, no salary was paid during the trial period. Near the end of that half-year period, just before the New Year, the employer brought up the issue of salary again, suggesting a starting salary of 2800 and 3300 after becoming a regular employee. When I argued with him, he insisted that I must have remembered wrong. With no other choice, I sent a letter to terminate the employment relationship after the New Year, forcing the employer to pay me my salary. That way, I was able to put an end to that unpleasant experience. I didn’t bother applying for arbitration either – I had to bear the consequences of my own choices! All of this is said for one reason: don’t focus only on interests; if something doesn’t work, just leave, and if that’s not an option, then do it yourself!
