Still no official news - all second hand news from a good source
Looks like I'm going to get a new job title, a new job description (one that actually reflects my role) and a new grade
Looks like I'm not going to get a pay rise, improved benefits, a career progression plan or another chance of promotion everMortgage at highest (April 2008): ~£195,000

What would happen if you handed in your resignation?
To you/ to them?
Maybe not one for the board - but you have played with the idea I trust.
Do what is right for YOU and good luck0 -
Hello Mr GG
Unfortunately, HR has no appreciation of my role or responsibilities so they wouldn't bat an eyelid if I resigned... It is HR that are the issue and apparently my boss is VERY frustrated/angry.
As much as I would like to resign and we could survive on 1 salary, I really do need another job to go to first.
I need to start job-hunting seriously and to make contact with the new department head of the same function in our parent company.
