Jackanda1:Don't try it. Do that job and do it well. They will raise you right. Have they paid you yet? They know that you will get to know how much others are paid and will place you right now or in the near future. Show them what you got 💯. |

This is a terrible work place! A "proper company, firm, organization or whatever, have a salary structure or pay scale. Your salary will be inline with that pay scale, regardless of what your salary expectations are or the answer you give to that question. It is either you're cooking up this story or you're in a sh*tty firm. Jackanda1: 2 Likes |

Jackanda1: Guess what, it happens to me. I have master's degree and I was paid less than people with bachelor degree. I tender my resignation letter after some months. They refused my resignation and I told them to pay me equivalent of what they are paying people with master's and they agreed. Work hard to impress them. Then tender your resignation letter. They will beg you to stay and increase your salary |

But since they have salary structure, how can they pay you less even if thatz what you asked for, aren't they supposed to stick to their structure. Does it mean, if you have asked for an amount higher than the salary structure, would have accepted to pay it? |

Bluntguy:This is it. The organization will most likely pay him based on their salary structure and not necessarily the figure he mentioned. It's always safer to tell them you expect to be paid based on company's pay scale if you are not armed with the correct salary information of the organization. As for those telling him to continue with the work, I don't think he will ever be motivated to work hard if he's paid what he mentioned. Personally, I can't deal...if they pay me that nonsense after the first month I'll tell them based on the harsh economic realities and my cost of transportation to work, I won't be able to take the amount anymore... Always have adequate information about the organization you are sending your application to 1 Like |

I don't know why I'm feeling bad on your behalf. It's really demoralizing to know you earn far less than your colleagues 1 Like |

It's actually not a standard organisation.... bcs all standard organisations have their own payment structure, they will still pay you with their structure even if your mention less or above during interview |

Jackanda1: Why would you be quoting price... I like giving answers in proverbs if the other person is advantaged then if you insist I be specific, then I will become offensive. You won't feel that bad because you asked me to be specific. |

Jackanda1: Leave hearsay. Nobody tells people their salary...you just quote a range. It's the amount you said will be OK for you, considering your responsibilities...so take it...give your best...two months too small, go the normal 3months probation...then upon confirmation of appointment, you ask for a raise. |

Jackanda1:After the interview when one of the staff asked how far as per the pay When I told she was shocked I actually told them my last salary when l was asked. She said y didn't l lie I said l would not lie and that they should have salary structure. I decided not to resume within few weeks l got another job that paid me double of what l was paid by my last employer. Ideally there should be salary structure in an organization. |

Jackanda1: Atimes when you are really good at your job with little pay, you might become detached from what you SHOULD be getting for the job you do . It is like coming out of an abusive environment . A little research is good before interview . Someone dear to me asked for almost times 3 of what her former employer was paying her and the new organization quickly agreed . All because she researched the company before hand With the deed already done , do your probation period and ask for an increase once they have seen what you can do . PS- the company too no try . Their HR department needs to be flogged . There are industry standards that should be followed . You can’t pay someone such and expect them not to find out later and it always leads to job dissatisfaction and most times resignation thereby wasting the company’s time and resources. Stop ASKING stupid questions about how much they want to be paid !. Pay people fairly based on company and industry salary standard for those positions ! |
