My boss told me I should be "grateful to have a stable job" when I asked about a raise. Is that a sign it's time to leave?
  • Your boss did not say that he was lucky to have you on the team. So it sounds like you are not being appreciated and they think they are doing you a... favour by you spending a large proportion of your waking hours working for them.

    I would not quit yet. But start looking for an alternative.
    If you find something better, then take it.

  • That’s a tough conversation to have. A stable job is valuable, but feeling appreciated, recognized, and having opportunities to grow are important... parts of a fulfilling career too.

    Sometimes moments like this cause people to start exploring what other options are available—whether that’s a new career path, a side opportunity, or simply creating another source of income.

    You or someone you know may be looking for more flexibility and room to grow. I’m always open to connecting, sharing what I do, and having a conversation to see if it could be a good fit.

  • Asking for a raise is not uncommon, but you will help yourself immensely if you offer reasons that you deserve one. As a boss, we all know about... rising prices and cost of living increases. However, employees that come in with solid justifications for asking for that raise are helpful. For example, have you increased productivity, taken on additional responsibilities, added value in any other ways? Lay out your value and a raise should follow. more

  • Well, you boss is not wrong. But that is not the sort of thing they should be saying to their employee. You can go find another job and be grateful... there instead. more

  • No, your boss should be grateful to have an employee like you.

    Get another job before you leave this one though.
