I did not get promoted...

as the month of November is ending, no one still told me that i got promoted, one of my batch mates is already promoted so i guess the time of informing people are over. I have been in this company for more than 2 years now and i am still at level 1. it just makes me sad that the higher ups do not really see me as someone to promote. I don't really know whether moving to another project will make any difference since it may be back to square one. For now, i will just try and finish this release and think about what to do next.

It sounds disappointing to know that though you were due for promotion, however, your promotion has been withheld for the time being. You could inquire from your HR department about the reasons for withholding your promotion. Our best wishes are with you.

@lady1993 How many employees are there in your company? Do you mean to say that you were found not up to the mark and you need to check with counselor that how you could improve yourself?

they do not have a say to it though, since our company is quit big. We will have a one on one talk with our counselor soon, to see how we can each improve

@dpk262006 yep, that is correct. we will have a talk tomorrow. It is a very big company, our project just happens to be low on budget now so only a few got promoted... it would be nicer in another project i guess

I guess it is time for you to reevaluate how you perform your duties in the company and how is your relationship with your superiors.

do you think that those who get promoted have a strong backer to help them be promoted?

My batch mate who got promoted did get some awards, so i think he really deserved it. And he was quite visible to the supervisors

@lady1993 if so, then he was assertive and wanted to prove his worth for the promotion.

I'm sorry to hear that... And it's not because you haven't passed the test, is it? You said it won't affect your chance of a promotion... Good luck with your next career journey!

I can completely undeerstand your situation, it must be really disheartening. The best choice is to change a job. Never settle for anything less than what you deserve

I am afraid to change a job right now because it was quite hard for me to get this job. i might try for a transfer to another project though
