At any company worth its salt, a promotion laterally to a new role could at least come with a nominal adjustment. 0% is absurd, but something nominal like 2% as a "performance incentive" towards new responsibilities would be reasonable.

2% is still laughable. They would easily be paying the external candidate > 10% more almost always.

Oh absolutely. Still, I was saying assuming they are up for a proper raise within that same 12 month period... That is at least a begrudging conversation. Not the 0% and no scheduled increase described.
