5 Reasons Why You Still Haven't Got A Raise Yet
Have you ever felt stuck at the same salary for years despite giving your best at work? Well, today's video is tailor-made for you. We'll dive into the top 5 personal reasons why you still haven't got a raise yet. And stick around until the end for a bonus reason you won't want to miss.
Before we jump in, let me share a quick story. I am Max I do Voice over for my YouTube channel Financer and I was stuck at a certain pay level for years. I was frustrated and thought about quitting. But then, I realized some crucial mistakes I was making. Once I corrected those, bam! I got that raise. Do you want to know what they are? I bet. So Let's get started.
Reason Number one is as straightforward as it gets: YOU ARE LAZY
Ouch, I know that hurts! But let's face reality here; if you're not going above and beyond in your role, you're severely limiting your chances for a raise. Laziness in the workplace isn't just about procrastinating or avoiding tasks. It's also about a lack of initiative—just doing the bare minimum and not stepping up when opportunities arise. Take Sarah as an example. While I was content clocking in and out, she was busy networking with supervisors, volunteering for challenging projects, and actively seeking feedback to improve. She got that raise because she wasn't lazy; she was proactive. If you're in this lazy boat, it's time to row harder. Start by identifying one extra task you can take on each week or one improvement you can make that'll help the team. Act like the raise has already happened and that you’re deserving of it; soon enough, it will. Being lazy is a comfort zone, and comfort zones don't earn raises. Shake it up, step out, and show your worth. After all, it's hard to ignore someone who's consistently delivering more than what's expected.
Moving to our second reason: You're Not Speaking Up
"The squeaky wheel gets the grease?" Well, there's a lot of truth to that weird phrase, especially in the workplace. You could be a superstar employee, but if you're silent about your achievements, you might as well be invisible. So yeah you can be brilliant at what you do—meticulous, punctual, and highly skilled. But you have one major drawback: you never speak up. When it came time for performance reviews, management had no idea about the real extent of your contributions. You were outshined by your peers, who weren't shy about showcasing their accomplishments. In the end, it was they who got the raises, not You. If you want to change that start by documenting your achievements. Keep track of all those little wins—whether it's completing a project ahead of schedule, solving a persistent problem, or getting great feedback from clients. During one-on-one meetings with your boss, share these wins and discuss your plans for future contributions. This not only proves your value but also shows that you're invested in the growth of the company. Communication is a two-way street. While you share your achievements, also be open to feedback. This shows your willingness to improve and go beyond your current skill set, which employers love to see. The bottom line is this: being good at your job isn't enough; you have to be good at showcasing it too. Actively communicate your value, your goals, and your wins, and you'll be one step closer to that raise you want to have.
