On: Ask HN: Who's getting their job applications rejected?

I would never trust a company to give me a raise like that. Management would just deny it when they want to save money on payroll.

I’ve had so many people promise things and have someone else them prevent them from following through.

I’ve had a department head reporting to the CEO try to keep me but HR wanted me gone. HR knew how to play politics and I was gone.

Ask to get it in writing. Then you’ll see how serious they are.

This.

Actually, I'm suggesting the top-level poster explicitly state they do this, so candidates know they aren't fucking around.
