Rakesh has been working as an Assistant Manager in a logistics company for the last ten years. The company is in a growing phase and has been making a lot of effort to acquire talent globally. Lately, many candidates with lesser educational qualifications and experience have joined the company at a higher scale than the one being given to Rakesh. Even others with lesser experience are being promoted. Although yearly performance appraisals rate Rakesh as "Highly Effective," he has never been offered a promotion.

Considerations for Employee Retention and Growth
In the present scenario, people should think about employability. Commitment and loyalty are okay, but if the management is not taking care of the seniors, then employees like Rakesh should think about themselves. Mr. Rakesh should approach HR and senior management to discuss his case. I agree the market is very hot, and it will be difficult for the management to find people at lower costs, but that doesn't mean we should neglect old, committed employees. To avoid these differences, the management should adopt service weightage and ensure that employees who have been with the organization are taken care of.
Finally, it is better for Rakesh to present his case to HR and senior management and simultaneously explore options outside. If the management is willing to upgrade his position, that's okay; otherwise, he should consider a change.
