Is it okay to give my manager a thank you gift for promoting me?
Is it appropriate to gift a manager something eg: sweets / wine for giving me a promotion and getting my promotion approved by upper management? TC: 100k
Manager should give YOU a gift
A “thank you” is all that is necessary.
No, that sounds so weird
No, an appreciation is good enough. Buy yourself and him/her a drink to celebrate together, if you really want to bestow upon the manager some sort of“gift”.
No. That’s his job. A gift implies he went above and beyond which would imply you didn’t really deserve the promotion.
And her*
Gift should give YOU a manager.
Inappropriate. First, you were promoted because you deserved it, not as an act of kindness. Second, it could be considered a bribe for next promotions. If you really want to celebrate, share a gift with a broader team (for example, a box of nice chocolates or a cake). You don't need to explain the reason to them, if you'd rather keep it private
Yeah, give him/her a massage while you are licking the ass.
Holy shit @ all the people who answered “yes”. This gives an appearance of impropriety even if there is none. It is a situation to be avoided.
