About a week ago i accepted a new position through a staffng agency. When i agreed to the position it was "mechanical engineer" and i would be reporting to the COO. My duties were pretty typical for an entry level to midlevel engineer. During my interview the GM came to speak to me about where he sees the company going and how he wants to innovate their stagnant product. However, it was never said that i would be heading that entire push. So my first day the GM is gone and the COO tells me i would be reporting directly to the GM. Ok thats strange but no big deal. Well yesterday i get called into the weekly sales meeting and the GM introduces me as Innovations engineer. Ok wtf thats not my title. He tells everyone that im single handedly spear heading a massive project from scratch. That im "unofficially a product manager". After the meeting he lays out a completely different list of duties than previously agreed upon. Which tbh id love to do. But my pay doesnt reflect that at all. I feel like im nearly 40% underpaid as just ME. Id love some solutions here.
