Salary Manager

I have been working at papa john’s as an insider for 3 years and just got promoted to manager. I just did one of my interviews and got told the starting pay was 7.50 and i can work my way up to higher pay. I just wanna say 7.50 is crazy considering i’m being paid 14.50 an hour as an insider. It’s kinda making me not wanna be a SM anymore and plus i can’t even start my training till I do another interview and nobody knows when i can talk to her. they said hopefully in the next couple of days but now they are saying hopefully by next week. idk i just feel like this is crazy
