I just received a promotion but i'm not sure if i was given a decent raise? Help please!?

Question

I was a Cashier (sales ***.) in a retail store in a mall. I recently got promoted to a management position (administrative assistant ). I'm in training and just found out i will be receiving $8.50 an hr from 7.35. I'm not sure if this is a fair amount. please help. i work in new jersey if that counts.

Answer 1

That is a $1.15 and hour more. Only you can decide if all the added responsibility is worth it or not. I'm sure if you do a good job your first performance review will net you another raise.
