<prompt> Human: Hey! I really need some advice here... I just want to lead into this by saying that I actually love my job and place of work but I am feeling like Im being walked all over and am very frustrated at this point...So Ive been at this job for just over a year and half and am on my second 1-year contract... Before signing my second contract, I asked to be made full time and asked for a raise since I was doing the job of two people for about 6 months prior my coworker quit and they didnt hire anyone to replace him... I was told that they were having trouble getting the full-time contract right now but could offer me another 1-year contract for now, and then in 3 months new calendar year they would try again along with getting me the raise I deserved. While signing my second contract, I was given a small raise but not what I was expecting... A month after signing my second contract, they finally hired someone to help me outreplace the coworker who quit 6 months ago, I found out that they hired this new person full-time and gave them a salary at 10k more than I am getting now... I continued to ask for full-time and continue to get the same answer. About two months ago, I was given a title promotion no raise, I didnt complain, and was yet again told that they were still trying to get me full-time and the raise I was asking for. Today, I found out that a co-worker who started after me on contract, was recently given a promotion and given full-time. I dont know how to put into words how frustrated I am right now, I am starting to look for new jobs which is not really what I want because I love my job and the people I work with but I know that I deserve more... Anyone have similar situations or can offer some advice?Assistant: Easy to take the OPs side in these things, but given the situation, its also entirely likely that hes not that great and they are reluctant to take him on full time compared to the other employees theyve hired or converted. How hard you work can sometimes be completely unrelated to how well you work, how productive you are, or how replaceable you are for the department.Either way, you need to look for a new job. Either they dont value you enough and you can do better or they dont like you that much in the role and you should move on. Human: Thanks for being devils advocate in this situation... I was given a really great review about 3 months ago, 10 colleagues and my direct report had to review me and I was told that I was the only person on the team who received such a high score! I believe this also aided in me getting the promotion... I have this idea in my head that maybe its because my direct report inherited me as an employee. I am the only person still on the team who was hired by the previous director... anyway! I appreciate your perspective, gives me a different look at the situation for sure... ps Im a woman Haha!  <response>: I didnt even read the OP, but its time to move on. If you are getting passed over after having talked to them, move on.
