This happens every time in northern Nigeria, in both government firms n private firms.

In NIPP (Geregu gas turbine 2), I know a Secretary(A northerner) to one of the oga kpatakpata who has an NCE in Islamic studies and he earns far more than a southerner who is ''Chief" Engineer in the plant.

I think what you need is patience and a little matter of time,wait till 6 months and renegotiate with ur employer their next action will determine what u will do then

idu1:
he don already carry anger resigned. He's like me very impatient.

kellykessy:


I disagree with you. The Company is unethical in their dealings. If you say you got a scale, be saying the truth. The guy evidently knows his worth, if he doesn't get it here, he will get it elsewhere. All he needs to do is not appear desperate and go for a salary that you want.

Sudokudon:

I got this job six months ago in the Northeastern part of the country. During the recruitment process, the recruiter told me the salary range for the job, which I was pleased with. I went for the interview and got the job within the specified salary range. A month after, the firm thought they needed someone to assist me. They found one, and he insisted he cannot earn less than a certain amount which is about 40% higher than my take home pay and this dragged for a while before they agreed to employ him but on a contract basis of one year. Although, he will not be entitled to certain benefits I am entitled to, yet, his net pay is still more than my gross salary.

When the firm saw that I got to know, the HR invited me for an extensive meeting, trying to pacify me. He told me he is just to work for a year and they might either not renew his contract or increase mine if they renew his. That our salary was based on negotiation and was still within the range of what the company can pay. Unfortunately, salary can only be reviewed once in 6 months.

My question is:

1. Can negotiations be arbitrary without a range by the company?

2. Can the firm, just because they want to recruit someone who is best fit for a role, pay the person higher than his/her boss?

3. Why should a company be using your last pay as a basis of what they want to pay instead of solely their own capacity to pay?

I submitted my resignation letter yesterday because I was finding it difficult working with him and because the issue keep haunting me. The MD refused to collect it though, but I am not looking back, I have moved on. I have gotten another offer in principle and I will be meeting with them next week for salary negotiation. I am thinking of the best possible way of negotiation, so that I won't be shortchanged again.

Where I worked before, a guy 3 years my junior from the same school and faculty earns way above me and had an official car. I did not begrudge him because I get what I bargained for. It pays to mind your business in all matters.

PrecisionFx:





U forgot ur sense somewhere.

Jarus:


Arbitrary negotiations happen all over the world. And yes, because he's a contract (not entitled to other benefits), there is a good case for him.

LegitBoy:
I'm sorry to say this but you took the most stupid decision there, his salary is haunting you? Is it the 6months that will kill you? People should stop bothering themselves with frivolities if you have a career to build.

But what do I know? You're probably a rich kid who can get a job at will so no point thinking about unemployment.

nams77:
: Your decision to quit was too sudden and very hasty. You have done what's in your mind so why question? A bird at hand....? Your best course of action, in my view, would have been to wait out and see. Your actions came off, somehow too immature. The dude has now taken over your position. The company is not at fault. The other dude saw himself very highly endowed and stuck to his gun. Taking this route is a very dangerous rope. Bargain too low, and you get pennies,price your self too high? You price your self out of the job, with your potential employer seeing you as a greedy fellow.

I had same encounter years back. This particular dude was earning exact same wage with me and I was the manager. He was even earning more than my supervisor, though he was third in line. It happened this way because his field was hard to come by and the company has past the deadline for kickoff so they just agreed to take him to avoid further delay.
How I resolved it when I got to know? I had a talk with the consultant and the MD and my salary was topped.
Best of luck sir

9japrof:
Without mincing words here, you are the one stupid and insecure.

From your story, you agreed your present pay during your interview without knowing your worth, the company never enforced the pay on you.

Your surbodinate came along and knew his value, he insisted on a pay he thought he is worth(Nigga knows his onions) and after much haggling, the company is paying him his worth.

Now your bad belle self on knowing what transpired is now angry, directing your anger at the wrong individual(management and your surbodinate) while the anger should have been directed at yourself for being stupid, naive and not knowing your worth. Your judgement is now clouded with bitterness that you don't see the bigger picture, he is a contract staff, a less secure job that can be terminated at will, you agreed that he is not entitled to some benefits you do have so what is forking wrong with you man.

Listen the grass ain't always greener on the other side, you are quitting your job now, how sure the same scenario wouldn't play out in your next work place or will you be changing jobs, anyway there are plenty of job opportunities in the Northeast.

What do u suggest? Use the current situation to renegotiate your contract in principle, make them sign a contract clause that stipulates that your salary must be reviewed upwards if a surbodinate is higher than your present pay.

Anyway what do I know

nwaimoroseyaho:
So what actually is your problem? you have already submitted your resignation letter without finding out the other company's pay. So if they pay you an amount lower than your current pay would you accept?.
Blame yourself for not having a bargaining power. BTW what makes you think that you're better than your assistant.
I wish they will even replace you with him.

If the company ask you to swap with the guy both in contract and renumeration, will you agree? Nonsense.

12submarine:

You can call me any name but I'm not buying lies. Kogi is not in Europe but I can't leave what I'm doing to start going to kogi just to comfirm a lie from one anonymous nairaland liar. You can as well go to dangote flour mill and ask from one Mr korede Ahmed to comfirm if I am lying. Trash.

texazzpete:


I smell lies.

Youngzedd:


What a pained soul. I am not responsible to your suffering.

jnfoage:

Keep lying to yourself.

I believe what u said so I don't need to check dangote flour mill for confirmation.

PrecisionFx:





I think ur a Hausa person.




Meanwhile respect Hitler.

jnfoage:

I am Hausa, but this your lie is something else. How did you manage to say it without getting choked?

I respect Hitler of course, are you a German? Is Hitler a liar? Haba, small small na.

12submarine:

Okay, I also believe yours, I don't need to start going to kogi state in search of one Engr Bassey Efa to comfirm that an NCE holder in Arabic studies who is a Secretary earns much higher than the chief engineer in a power generation company because the NCE holder is a northerner while the chief engineer is a southerner.
