Hello, everyone.
This is Enta.
Do you know when you're likely to get a raise?
In terms of the order in which raises are given, those who contribute to the company's profits, or
If you contribute to the company, there's a chance your salary might go up, right? lol
That's a rough estimate, but in the construction industry, it's virtually unheard of to work on a monthly or half-yearly basis.
Typically, the minimum term is one year.
For example, let's say you've been at your current company for one year.
Just having you at that company will increase its operating costs (the money needed each month).
If sales stay the same, profits will go down lol
That makes sense.
So let's say you worked hard that month (the first year and one month) and managed to turn a profit. (You've started to get the hang of the job.)
However, if it turns out that you weren't performing very well up until that point, the company will finally be in a position to evaluate you.
The next year will be crucial.
On the other hand, there are people who just cost money just by being there, lol.
When we say someone has contributed, we can almost certainly say that they have done so if the construction project was completed smoothly, on schedule, and without any accidents.
At large companies, there are plenty of people who make you wonder, “Why is this person here?” or “Is this person really necessary?”
I didn't understand it when I was younger either, but I think it must serve some kind of purpose. (Or at least I'd like to think so, lol.)
This is something you might not understand until you've reached a certain age or held a certain position.
So it’s not uncommon for young people to encounter older men who are a complete mystery to them.
From the perspective of the people working on-site, they might think that we're the ones bringing in the money, but,
Actually, there are a few people like that who are a bit of a mystery behind the scenes, lol.
This means that back-office functions (such as administrative work and other tasks) also play an important role when it comes to securing work. (I’d like to believe that.)
Getting back to the topic at hand, the time when your salary typically goes up as a result of your contributions to the company is usually between March and April, but,
Around that time, you'll start getting offers from recruiters.
In the story about having worked at that company for one year, the following year is the second year.
That means you’ve been working at that company for two years, but,
If you were to change jobs while treating your track record there as a clean slate, you might end up earning more than your current salary, but
I have no track record at that company.
So, there won't be an evaluation next fiscal year...
If you're going to change jobs, I think it's better to do so after you've gained some experience at your current job, rather than when you're young.
Recruiters won't evaluate you based on your current achievements or skills, and
They're recruiting you simply because you're young right now, and simply because they need more staff.
Ultimately, once you get to know someone, as long as they don’t seem like a bad person, just reach out to them—and if they offer you a salary that’s a little higher than what you’re making now, consider yourself lucky.
If you're around 30 years old and have about five years of experience, your skills should be well-regarded by potential employers, so I think changing jobs is a good option.
There are plenty of people who say, “My salary isn’t going up” or “I can’t make ends meet on this salary.”
This is especially true for young people, who hear stories from friends who are earning more than their skills warrant.
"That guy makes that much, but I only make this much... Okay, time to switch jobs!!!" That's the kind of thought that tends to pop into my head lol
However, companies that offer high salaries from the start tend to be fairly consistent. This is especially true of major companies.
And if you don't have the skills to work at a major company, it's pretty tough, lol.
I do recommend giving it a try, but if you have the necessary skills and are willing to sacrifice your time, I’d encourage you to go all out at a major company.
The reward for that is your salary.
If you don't have the skills, your salary is flatter than the horizon lol (no matter how old you get)
If you're not working for a major company, as long as you have a reasonable workload and a certain level of skill, there's a high probability that you'll rise to the top as you get older.
Naturally, since they’ve been with the company for a long time, they’re highly regarded and have a strong reputation in society. (They can handle the basic stuff, lol.)
It also makes it easier to negotiate your salary.
At the big firms, top talent from prestigious universities are competing fiercely, but honestly, if you're a local company, as long as you can do the job to a certain extent... lol
It can be a bit of a pain when companies ask, “What does ‘college graduate’ even mean?” lol
That said, there are plenty of people at local companies who are more capable than employees at major corporations.
(Personally, I think the local area is generally better when it comes to construction techniques and construction management.)
The minimum timeframe for a pay raise is at least one year.will be.
I, too, will take that into consideration in April of that year, one year from now.
Local businesses, in particular, are quite cautious because their sales are directly linked to their payroll.
We'll take that into account with an eye toward future growth. (This is the hardest part.)
If you misjudge the timing and let yourself be swayed by a recruiter’s sweet-talking promises,
That means you'll end up losing quite a bit of money.
By the way, since scouts are paid to do scouting activities,
To be honest, as long as I can recruit them and get them to switch jobs, anyone will do ^^ (Young people are so easily fooled.)
Three Years Even on a Rock
To put this in modern terms,
If you keep doing the same thing for three years, you'll become a pro!
That's the point.
The so-called 10,000-Hour Rule
Let's definitely give it a try for three years!
A world you never imagined will appear there!
Civil engineering, in particular, is a safe bet!
Over the next 10 years, everything right before our eyes will undoubtedly be transformed, and a whole new world will emerge.
Let's make sure to hone our skills thoroughly before then.
See you later.
