      a promotion with no pay rise cannot be called a promotion

      it is possible to have a promotion with no pay increase

      this maybe due to the fact that the pay of the job holder is higher than what the market is paying for the grade, thus the company decides to promote or upgrade the job holder without having to adjust the pay for this round.

      the pay will only be reviewed in the next round of pay review.

      personally...i would go for just pay increase and not promotion

      it is possible for a promotion without a pay rise. they give u a "senior" in front of your current rank and (probably) u suddenly find yourself loaded with more responsibilities. Laughing

      I'll surely pick the promotion Razz

      An increased liability or a brand new portfolio will let me gain more insights, which will make me perform my tasks better and get a pay-rise eventually! Very Happy

      i am more concern about what i can do what i can learn in the process of doing what i do..so if with all the experience u earned it will be with u always and if u really cannot work for an employer anymore u still have the skills and knowhow and attitude to work for another.

      it is call survival Laughing

      also true but then the boss need to appreciate talent too by increasing the pay so that the person will stay though
