Hi all,

I have been working as an Office Specialist past 3 years. Recently I got a promotion/change in my career as a VB/VBA Programmer since I have little bit stuff in vb/vba. I don't have previous experience as a programmer.

When I was an Office Specialist my manager will grade me based upon how much pages I worked, how much time I worked, etc. But, as a programmer how they will grade me. I cannot approach them directly for this.

You know, I worked about 1 day to develop a program in vb that increased the productivity (some sort of conversion in MS office) of my company about 35%. And I also I worked about 5 days for a project that increased a productivity only 2%. So, I have very big confusion about my growth, etc.

I would like to know how your employer grades you. How you will prove you are better than others? How you will bargain for more growth, promotion, Sal etc.?

I know these are silly questions. But each and every one of you will have different opinion and experience. So, please share your opinion on this. So it will be useful for me and persons like me to be the best in our organization and also in our domain.

Thanks,

CS.
