My boyfriend was hired by a company and began work on May 1. When he was hired he was offered a lower salary than he requested, however the manager told him he could probably get him his requested salary contingent upon his 90 day review (which would be August 1).

This is a good job with good benefits, and because of my boyfriend's education/qualifications, he is a top canidate for being promoted quickly in the company. However my boyfriend feels that he doesn't necessarily want a future with this specific company because of the unprofessional way it is being run.

So my question is this - We think the company is not going to bother with the 90 day review (that's just the way things have been going at the company.) Should he let it go and just deal with not receiving the modest pay change? Or should he ask for the 90 day review and then risk the high chance of them not granting the pay raise?

Make sure the company is not experiencing a crisis at the moment. Does something else have his bosses attention at the moment. It there is a crisis going on at the company, then it is not the best time to bring it up. If not, he may want to bring up the subject. Keep in mind that he still may not get the raise. Some employeers use that line to get 90 days worth of work out a person at a lower than expected pay. Personally, if I did not the promised pay, I would go my own direction.

Yes, all employers give their employees a 90 day review but it any never be on time he needs to talk to the person in charge and request the date and time of when will it happen. If they said after 90 days they need to stick with the verbal contract. If lets say it does not happen until Sept. he needs to go to the H. R. dept and request it to be done.

Ask for the 90 day review.
During the review if it is not going well ask what he could have done to get the money that was originally promised to him. It shows that you are willing to do whatever it takes and it shows that you are very aware of an agreement that was made.

Good luck
