Job raises?

Question

I know each job varies and everything; but how many months are you supposed to be at a job to get a raise?

Answer 1

If you have an employment contract that stipulates raises it will be according to your contract.

Many companies (but not all) do a performance evaluation after a 90 day probation and will give a small raise. If the 90 day raise is not given it will be a year from your hire date. Once a year after that if you are lucky enough to work at a company that can afford to give raises.

Unfortunately, as the economy has gotten worse many companies are not offering annual raises anymore.

There is no law that requires employers to offer salary increases.

Answer 2

i have been at my job and i have NOTHING in 2 years! ha! it does vary, some do an evaluation and raise after 6 months and some do after a year. you really should get at least a cost of living raise every year, but if you work in the s*^#hole that I do, then you can try for a year and get nothing
may be why i am leaving!!!!!

Answer 3

Raises are usually based on merit, not time spent. You may be ELIGIBLE for a raise after an initial probationary period (3 months) or after, say, a year, but I don't think anyone is every guaranteed a raise - you have to earn it. At least that's the way it's worked at most of my jobs -

Answer 4

Usually get one after 3 months and then once a year, if you get one at all.

Answer 5

Annual reviews and raises seem to be the norm today

Answer 6

I guess it depends on the industry, but I think it is common after a trial period of three months, then yearly.

Answer 7

bout a year
