If you work your butt off for the NHS and you reach the top-end of your 'Pay Band' that is it, no promotion, no increase in salary. If that is the case I am glad I never joined. One of the main reasons I left the UK was that I was training people on more money than me and when I asked for equal treatment I was told no. Voted with my feet and the more I hear about the NHS the better I feel.
