Evaluate Your Performance: Assess if you've met or exceeded your goals. Understand if the denial was due to company finances or personal performance.
Build Your Case: Prepare evidence of your achievements, salary benchmarks, and comparable job offers to discuss with your manager.
Negotiate Benefits: If a pay raise isn't possible, negotiate for additional benefits like more vacation days, flexible hours, or professional development opportunities.
Seek Feedback: Constructively discuss with your manager to understand the reasons for the denial and areas for improvement.
Plan Ahead: Focus on future goals and career development to strengthen your case for the next review.
