[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Be careful if they promise a grade increase in a year. My DH got that promise, too, and is still waiting 3 years later, even though he's a top performer.[/quote]

Sounds like he's not really a top performer then. [/quote]

Not PP but with the fallout from budget cuts and sequestration, there's a slot and headroom problem. [/quote]

It doesn't matter though. If someone is hired into a 12/13 position - the position is budgeted for funding at the 13 level. Managers can give any excuse they want, but if they truly wanted to promote PP's DH - they would find a way. [/quote]

Not that I have to defend myself, but he has always had the highest ratings, but as PP said, with sequestration and budget caps, they can only have x# of 14's in a group. His boss has gotten him quality step increases, but no grade. Also, his supervisor told him that the HR person he spoke with about grade increases was speaking out of line. Someone has to leave for him to get a promotion.

Just want to make sure that OP finds out and understands what is involved in promotion to the next grade. DH now knows to ask the question at future interviews (what do I have to do to get a grade increase?), and I want to make sure OP does that, too.
