Comment Comment by vonseel > I was able to average 18% raises for over a decade by switching jobs nearly every year.Hmm. For those curious, assuming I still understand how to do basic math like this and a few relatively low starting salaries for year one: 40k*(1.18^10) = 209k 60k*(1.18^10) = 314k 80k*(1.18^10) = 418k Are you one of these software engineers I hear about making 400k? I suppose I would find 150k-200k as more believable since your bio states you are a "remote software engineer". Or maybe you over-estimated the annual raises? parent vonseel 7 years ago
