Just got offered a promotion and raise at my job, which is great and what I've been hoping for but I feel like it's way lower than it should be and I'm not sure how to negotiate higher.
Little overview of my position:
I'm WFH at a small PR agency, and originally my position was to do PR outreach and content creation. It's an entry level role and I've been at it for 1.5yrs but I've picked up a lot of responsibility since then. Since last October a coworker that focused mainly on social media marketing was fired and I've taken on a lot of their tasks ever since.
In January, I was put in charge of creating an intern program, and then onboarding and managing two interns for 3 months. I also on onboarded and managed a contract employee that was basically doing the same work as the interns (albeit very poorly, leaving me to do a lot of work to correct it). Meanwhile since we were short a person, I was spread thin to work on 6 different clients on a variety of tasks while everyone else on the team (all senior roles) had 3 or 4 clients.
In June, another coworker that focused on marketing design quit and I've also since taken on her some of the more basic design tasks, like infographics, reports and small website updates.
All together, it's a lot. I feel like the only way to get work done is by doing overtime (which we don't get paid extra for)
So here's some of the cons I see about the promotion:
+ it's only a 10% increase. Which to me, only really factors in inflation and not all the extra roles I've taken on, let alone the expectation that will now be on me to take on even more in this senior role.
+They want us to come into the office once a week now. Apparently the cost of commuting was factored into my 10%
+Commuting to the office will take me 2hrs each way to get there (not thrilled about this, even if it is once a week)
+The way the train runs, I'll either have to arrive 1hr early to work or ~30mins late
+The city I'm in is currently having a lot of issues with public transit, one line is being shut down for an entire month for maintenance, and there's rumors that the line I'm on will be next, which will obviously affect my commute to the office.
Overall, feeling like this promotion is really undervaluing my work. I wasn't planning on leaving any time soon but now I'm not so sure.
