I am confused and disappointed to why you have emailed this to me, this is not very professional. I also find it a little threatening.
However, having done so; I too have thought it was time to talk to you on your year in the position and what the future may bring.
We will talk it over and will be agreeing an action plan on goals and achievements that need be met by you in the next 6 - 12 months and discussing how this can be tied into a salary increase. Also what you wish to achieve and your goals over this period.
I have already spoken with three of the top universities to make sure that we are still offering a competitive package, this we can talk about at our meeting and just to put your mind at rest, your current salary level puts you in the top 10% of similar MBA professionals to you working within Europe with one or more years service.
Your current income also puts you in the top 8% of salary earners in the South including London and East England . I’m not sure how you feel you cannot support yourself and your family on this !
It may be an idea that we can talk about a performance related pay scheme to enhance your salary which we can base on our agreed plans and your achievement plans being met.
Anyway, I think that we should talk this over rather than do it through emails and I hope that you will take a little longer to consider how to communicate in future.

Subject: Re: reviewing my pay
Hi, Mike
It has been one year since I moved down to Devon from London. Now I am very happy to be a member of the abc company.
Now I am glad to see our business is taking off with your leadership, my hard work and dedicated support from our shareholders’ team. Also Paul and Helen joined us on full time basis recently. I believe that our sales revenue will increase by 150-200%, at least, during this coming season. I hope I can further my career as our company grows.
As you know, my wife and son have joined me to stay in the UK. I am very happy to have my family reunion after sacrificing two years on studying my MBA in this country. (
However, I feel that my current pay can not support my family in this country on long term basis. I think it is the time to discuss this issue with you.
I really appreciate it if you can let me know when we may have a discussion about reviewing my pay.
