Help with changes to job titles...

Zerina

Hi all,

We recently went trough restructure for one of our functions. Previously we has following titles:

Analyst

Senior Analyst

Consultant 

Senior Consultant 

Principal Consultant 

Under new structure we combines Analyst and Senior Analyst under Associate Solution Consultant role. New structure looks like this:

Associate Solution Consultant 

Solution Consultant 

Senior Solution Consultant 

Principal Solution Consultant 

According to some recent feedback people who are in Associate Solution Consultant roles are not overly happy as previously they would make 

 their way from Analyst to Senior Analyst but now they will stay longer in Associate Solution Consultant role before making it to Consultant level.

Has anyone had similar experience and how did you manage it? Obviously they are thinking about salaries as they would have that promotion jump from Analyst to Senior Analyst but under the current level they just receive usual merit increases or increases that are not as high as they would be if it was case of promotion. 

Many thanks!

    Those who shout the loudest that they 'deserve' to have a highfalutin' job title are usually the very least-deserving of nurturing re remuneration etc!

    Re removing a 'promotion' from normal career progression , best to reassure everyone that removal of a level in the structure won't usually / necessarily result in lesser financial reward (and make sure you act upon this undertaking!) - if it does in certain cases result in slower progression, then so be it - overall, the rationalisation is probably still inherently a lot more cost-effective than the previous structure.
