Just got promoted

After a lengthy process, I finally received a promotion yesterday.
Slight change to my job title, but basically I'll just be getting recognized and paid for work I do anyway.
I received a $11K salary bump

Get paid significantly more for the work you're already doing .... That's the best kind of promotion! Congrats!!

Nicely done! Congrats!

Congratulations! More money as well as the recognition is great. Why the lengthy process (if you’d care to share)? My initial reaction was that could be a bit of a yellow flag for the company.

It's a good company. No yellow flag.
The lengthy timeline is due to the fact that out parent company is in Belgium. That parent company in turn reports up to a holding company in England.
So, multiple layers of red tag to get things done, especially things that involve large sums of money.
If we were a local privately owned firm, this would have probably happened long ago.

Congrats and glad that worked out for you.

im sure that process took more than 11k in company time and resources for the final decision to be made. I think the saying is Tripping over dollars to pick up nickels.

Congrats! That's great news. I understand that large ships turn slowly but at least they finally caught up to paying you appropriately for the work you're doing. It's always nice to get that recognition and compensation.
