Employees feel unappreciated if they do their best but don’t receive a boost of monetary perks after every short while.
Also, most of them feel awkward asking for an increment themselves in a professional setup.
If you are in such a position, then let us break the bubble and tell you that it is absolutely fine to request a raise in your salary and bring your performance to notice.
Honestly, if you want to grow in your career, you will have to speak up for yourself.
But when you plan to request a raise, your timing should be correct.
Here are some ideal times to consider making your request:
1. After a Significant Achievement
If you’ve just completed a big project, landed a major client, or achieved something noteworthy, it’s a good time to ask for a raise.
Your recent success can serve as strong evidence of your value to the company.
What You Can Say
“I’m proud of the success we had with the recent project where I led the team to exceed our goals. I’d like to discuss my compensation in light of these accomplishments.”
2. During Performance Reviews
Many companies have annual or semi-annual performance reviews. These are natural opportunities to discuss your career progression and salary.
What You Can Say
“With my performance review coming up, I’d like to discuss my contributions over the past year and the possibility of a salary increase.”
3. Company’s Financial Success
If the company has had a particularly good year, made record profits, or expanded significantly, it might be a good time to ask for a raise.
What You Can Say
“Given the company’s strong performance this year, I’d like to discuss my role in our success and the possibility of a salary review.”
