[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Most of mine have been taken, but I'll say additional responsibility at work or higher titles. I've reached a stage where I'm content with my work life balance and compensation and I just want to carry on with regular cost of living raises. Unfortunately, that's frowned upon and I'm supposed to keep striving for more [/quote]

Ugh same here.  I don’t want to get promoted, I just want to keep on keeping on.  I don’t more money, just to keep making roughly the same accounting for inflation.  But you’re not allowed to say that at performance reviews.[/quote]

I'm one of these people too. Just let me coast. I'm very happy that way. [/quote]

Me too, and stated as such, but then they started piling more and more responsibility on me under the guise of compliments, i.e. "you'd be so good at this," "you're the perfect blend of the two skill sets we need here," blah blah blah. About a month ago I finally said hey, if you're going to consistently take me out of my pay grade, let's discuss a promotion. I'm not a patsy just because I was happy with the work load and the compensation that matched that work load. Now that you're increasing the work load, I'm no longer OK with the compensation." It's been a month and surprise, they haven't gotten back to me while a project just stalls and sits there.[/quote]
