So there's a few things to consider.
- This plan prevents me seeking coverage on marketplace for me and children, as well as income based insurance programs.
-
I fear he looks at it as a $1000 raise, and not the cost of doing business. Like you can't say "well my rent went up $500, so your raise is me being able to keep the shop open." This is my biggest concern.
-
This plan will actually cost me less in the long run, they have been good employers, but with all things considered I would not be comfortable taking this as my yearly "raise" (which should be coming up in December, was expecting 5-6%.)
-
My income is squarely in the middle for my profession, I could seek more elsewhere but quality of life is much better here than elsewhere(this is a rotating on call job, with 50-hour regular weeks and I get paid for OT.) I could realistically earn another $8-$10k per year elsewhere with insurance included, but my QOL will suffer greatly.
-
Our company has met or exceeded our sales goals 11 out of 12 past months, and far exceeded goals at least 3 times(doubled sales goal twice, 150% of goal once.) These determine our bonuses, and are going up significantly next year. This is a growing company. I can definitely use this to my advantage, as my time with the company directly aligns with these increases.
-
I have been a star performer, cover every chance I get, have many positive reviews and can really maximize our profits on jobs. I have been told i am one of our best in customer interaction, paperwork and documentation.
Anyone have advice or suggestions how I should go about having this conversation? While I understand they are on the hook for more, this is a cost of doing business and directly from how successful they have been. What are salient points to make for why I should also get a raise?
TLDR: Job is a successful and growing company which is now offering insurance. GM believes this counts as a $1000 raise per month for each employee. How do I convince him that I still should get a raise? Have great reviews and well liked by superiors. But not comfortable with insurance being my only raise for the year.
