You worked harder. You did more. You trained the new hires. You fixed the broken systems. You answered Slack messages at 10PM.

Performance review time.

“You’ve exceeded expectations.”

And then…

3%.

Welcome to the peanut butter raise — evenly spread mediocrity.

Companies will tell you it’s about fairness. Or economic uncertainty. Or eliminating bias. What it’s really about? Administrative convenience and payroll stability.

If inflation is 5% and you got 3%, that’s not a raise. That’s a pay cut with confetti.

Meanwhile, they’ll fight you over 6%… then turn around and hire someone new at 18% above your salary.

Because hiring budgets compete with the market. Retention budgets compete with you.

The biggest raise most people ever get isn’t from loyalty.
It’s from leverage.

Always be applying.
Create options.
Ignore the peanut butter propaganda.

If you’ve ever gotten a “cost of living adjustment” that didn’t even match the cost of living… this one’s for you.
