I just started work at a new job a couple of months ago(salaried professional- no OT). In the job offer letter it says my work would be from 8AM to 5PM. My manager said in my interview that I wouldn't work long hours, perhaps until 6 some days. It turns out that I've been working until around 8PM almost every day a week. My manager and 2 coworkers stay that late, so I feel compelled to. I even had to work a few Saturdays and Sundays.
The reason for the work is because we're in the middle of our year end audit which has lasted longer than a typical audit. I know that even after the audit we will be behind on the new years work.
Anyways, in the past few months I feel like I have proved that I am capable and am great at problem solving and coming up with new ideas.
Another thing, we're short staffed right now in my department.
Should I ask for a raise or bring up the extra work when I negotiate my salary at my year end review, which probably won't be for awhile.
