In all honestly, I would've asked before I even entertained the idea of
accepting the position - got the job description, duties and
responsibilities. Hind site being 20/20, now you've got no recourse except
to accept what the employer decides, which may be "nothing", since you
didn't inquire about it before accepting. Now you have "no" bargaining
power, and to find out "if" you are even going to get an increase, you'll
need to be savvy, like ask for all the details on the new position, its
responsibilities, who reports to you, who you report to, how the position
fits into the company structure, how many hours are you required to work (as
many supervisory positions now carry the extra unmentioned 20 hours of
supervisor work on top of the 40 hours development/coding work), what is its
rate of pay, etc.
