Re: To ask for a raise or not....
Are you showing your ambition by delivering results above and beyond what is expected or by asking for a raise?
in the time of hiring freezes and bonus phaseouts especially if something has been officially communicated...Bad move. Even if you are a rockstar at work. It may be prudent to have a discussion noting your results and that while u understand there is a company wide freeze you would like your performance and results for this year tobe kept in mind when raises are allowed.
Or be promoted to a higher role and a higher salary band.
