DEAR DAVE: raise or smaller raise with new title

Hey guys, this is Anna and I’m emailing you from work because I have a big work dilemma I thought you could help me with.

My issue is that I recently asked for a much-deserved raise after working for 3 years without one. My boss told me I had a choice, get a 5-percent raise or a 3-percent raise but an official title as “Senior Administrative Assistant.” This basically means that I’ve got seniority over all the other administrative assistants.

At first I thought the job title and smaller raise was the way to go, but now that I think about it I’m not sure what to do.

Which should I go for, the higher raise or the smaller raise with the job title?

Anna
