Quiet promotion occurs when employees are given more responsibilities without a change in designation or a pay hike.
A survey by Job Sage found that 78% of American employees have experienced this. This practice can lead to resentment, decreased job satisfaction, and burnout as employees feel unrecognized despite their increased workload.
To avoid quiet promotions, clearly communicate your expectations and career goals with your manager, negotiate for fair compensation, and manage your workload to prevent burnout.
