Good Morning.
A few months ago I asked for assistance in writing my job description. I
appreciated all the information received. I submitted a job description for
"EDI Coordinator/IT Support" which is more accurately what I do.
Our Company IT department consists of my boss and myself plus a part time
contract programmer 2 days a week. It is really a great setup. I enjoy doing
different things.
Well,,, last week I received a "benchmark" of my job & salary against the
chicagoland area market. I was disappointed and surprised by what the HR
person told me and I would like to share it with the group.
The job description I submitted was ignored and a cryptic EDI Coordinator job
description was used from a Marketing Salary Research databank. My salary
benchmark was the salary I started at 9 years ago. And to top it off, when I
asked about the "IT Support" portion of my position, the HR person stated if
they used that part of my job to benchmark my salary it would have brought it
DOWN! Yep she said DOWN!
I have 15 years experience in EDI and this is the first time I have ever heard
doing MORE will reduce your marketability. Hmmm..
Any comments I can pass along to my HR person?
Thank you in advance.. I need a laugh today can you tell..
Denise
