Come over to America! A magical place where you are only worth the money you make for your corporate overlords, and despite being told by your boss that they are SO glad that they hired you, your performance review is a 3/5 because they don’t want you getting too comfortable and “there’s always room for improvement!”
Ah, here it’s very different. In multiple companies I’ve gotten consistent 5/5 and told by my own manager that I should really get a promotion, but they can’t give me promotion or even a raise. Just the 1-2% salary adjustment everybody gets.
At least for me in IT, everybody usually gets an adjustment that’s on average above inflation. So if you work the same place for ten years without ever getting a raise, you still keep up with inflation.
I think my lowest was 0% and my highest almost 3%. Some years slightly below inflation, but in any 3 year period I think I’ve been above inflation.

Feels so good… 🙄
You guys get 1-2% salary adjustments?!?

Then any raise is on top of that.
