خلفية ثقافية
Promotions are often celebrated with 'kakkukahvit' (cake and coffee) at the office. The person promoted or the company provides cake for the team. Military promotions are a matter of public pride. Names of those promoted are published in national newspapers on Independence Day. Hierarchy is generally flat. Even after a promotion, you likely still call your boss by their first name and use the informal 'sinä'. It is becoming standard to share promotions on LinkedIn, but the tone remains professional and slightly humble.
Use the Translative
Always remember to add '-ksi' to your new job title when using this phrase.
Don't say 'ottaa'
Avoid translating 'take a promotion' literally. Use 'saada'.
