Conversation
Candy is a highly skilled programmer in a large software **pany. She wants to discuss an issue with her manager, John.
Candy:Hi John! Do you have a moment?
John:Sure,Candy.What can I do for you?
Candy: I'd like to schedule a meeting with you to talk about my position. When's a good time for you?
John: Er, well it's probably best if you fix a time with my secretary, OK?
Candy: Fine. I'll do that.
John: Come in,Candy,take a seat.Now,what can I do for you?
Candy: Well,I'd like to discuss my **pensation package with you.
John: Really? I thought you were happy with the increase we gave you last year!
Candy: Yes,but I hope you'll agree that since last year I've achieved such a lot and we need to considerthese achievements.For example,I was responsible for organizing the conference in Astana lastmonth and…
…and finally,I managed the ISO 9001 audit,which we successfully **pleted.So,wouldn't youagree that my performance this year has been very successful?
John: Wellyes.But what exactly do you want?
Candy: Iunderstand that this year the pay increase is between 3 and 8 percent.I would like to ask foraraise at the top end of that scale.
John: Ooh! I don'tknow about that,Candy,Imean,what about the others?
Candy: If you look at my responsibilities in **parison to my colleagues, I am currently underpaid. Wouldn't you say this should be taken into consideration?
John: I'm not sure that that is really quite true.Candy.
Candy:Oh,I think so.I checked.Compared to programmersin other **panies,I'm earning about 4 percent less than the market average.Here are the figures.
John: Are you saying you want to leave?
Candy:No,I just want you to know the background to my request,that's all.I'm sure you can see that itwouldn't be hard for me to get a better paid job elsewhere.
John: I see.
Candy:So,would you be willing to support my request for a higher wage increase?
John: Well,the problem is also your qualifications.Even though you are a fantastic programmer,you don'thave the qualifications on paper for me to justify to the HR department putting you into a highersalary level.
Candy: I thought that might be a problem.So,wouldn't it make sense for the **pany to invest insending me on an advanced programming skills course?The **pany benefits from my improvedskills,I have the necessary qualifications on paper and you could then justify to the HR departmentpaying me more.I hope you'll agree that that would be a win-win situation for everybody.
John: Hmm.I need to think about this idea.
Candy:Sure.I'll find a time for another meeting towards the end of the week with your secretary.But thanksfor your time today.I do appreciate that.
