QuestionI was offered another job. When I gave my notice, the company offered me a raise to stay, but its been 3 months and I have not received the promised raise. How can I approach the CEO?Community AnswerDon't bother. Look for another job and then leave. It's obvious that your boss needs you to do the work, but doesn't value you enough to keep a promise to you.

QuestionHow do I approach my procrastinating boss about a promised raise and promotion?Community AnswerVerbally the first time, via email the second. If that still doesn't motivate or "remind" your boss about the promise, it's time to walk away and get a new job.

QuestionI have been in my position for a year. In the beginning of this position I was promised to be given a raise, but a year passed and I never received the pay raise. What can I do?Community AnswerSend an email to the boss and ask for a discussion about your performance. Don't mention an increase here. Discuss your performance. If the performance review is good then ask if you can have another discussion when convenient about a salary increase. Then schedule it in his or her calendar. (Bring proof why you deserve it to that meeting.)
