Annual Pay Increases

My company just handed out our "merit" increases. I am really kind of disgusted with this. I have always worked for smaller companies who gave accoring to the "year" most of the time very generously. This company is terrible. What % do people normally get? and does anyone know what % cost of living is today? TIA

Re: Annual Pay Increases

We get a 5% increase each year, JT only gets a 4% increase each year. Both would be fine, but 5% and 4% of not much=not much.

Re: Annual Pay Increases

I thnk the average increase is 3%, if you don't work for a company that gives generous or merit based increases.

DH and I both work for non-profits and automatically get a lousy 3% raise. However, I hear many private companies don't even give annual raises.

Re: Annual Pay Increases

Lots of companies don't give raises. Since I work for a partnership, it depends on how well the business did the previoous year with regard to salary increases and bonuses.

I was lucky this year and my Senior Managing Partner gave me 6%.

I work for a very much FOR profit and I also get a measly 3%. There is no merit based increase, which I find totally bogus since I DOUBLED the sales goal last year Chat Icon

I worked for a private company for years and we got raises every year - really good ones too if you worked hard. Then we got taken over by this gi-normous public company (went from 144 employees to 7,000 Chat Icon) and, well, here we are at 3% Chat Icon

Re: Annual Pay Increases

At my last company, the average was 2%. Now I'm self-employed, so depending on how I do this year, maybe next year I'll give myself a raise Chat Icon

My Job has not given out company raises in 3 years. I have only gotten a raise when I got promoted into a new department.

Everyone gets 3% a year regardless of performance. I would LOVE a merit increase. Why do I work so hard for nothing?

I got 7% the first year and it has been going down gradually as my salary increases. Last year it was 5.5%. I think they want to keep me below a magic number.

Re: Annual Pay Increases

my increases are based on performance. Also, I work for a bonus-driven company. We don't get huge increases, but our bonus increases each year. This year I received my highest increase and bonus. I have been here for 5 years. My increase was 7.5% I normally get 2 or 3%

Re: Annual Pay Increases

i work for a teeny tiny company.
for the 1st two years I got no salary increase at all- with modest bonus/incentive.
Then last July I got a 11.5% raise and then this past month I got a 7.5% raise.

Re: Annual Pay Increases

DH just got his. He got the most in his area and it was 1900 for the year. What the heck is that? Now really, think about it..how much is it over the course of a year?
