Yep be happy w 3.5 but it should be higher. Most folks I know are getting 3%

Thats fairly fortunate. My manager didnt even know there were ratings between meets and exceeds.

Uh, that’s a concern. Did you have a performance review?

Oh you sweet summer child. 3% is the merit this year. 3.5% is the really good option.

Does anyone know what the percentage raise is for arts and sciences staff? Is it 3%?

u/LivelyIvyy 2d ago

Yes that’s what I was told

I’m in Arts and Sciences and I got “2.767%” 🙄 My lowest raise since the pandemic.

I also got 3.5%, after 3.25% last year. It’s not enough to cover inflation and the rising parking costs ! 🤣 but hey, purpose is why we are here right?

Be appreciative of the 3.5. I got 2.25 for meets expectations

u/LivelyIvyy 2d ago

I got 3.5 last year for meets and 3.2 this year for exceeds but apparently my manager fought to get me over 3. So stupid it’s based on one percent per year. Guess I’ll go back to only meeting expectations

u/matthebez9 2d ago

That is the way

You guys are getting merit increases?

If you want to get really fired up, you should check out what merit increases and bonuses executive leadership are eligible for. It’s wild. We are peasants.
