    I got a ~30% raise when I moved companies. Loyalty is not rewarded

      The only way I’ve ever gotten significant raises is job hopping. My last job, I finally got an overdue promotion with a solid ~10-15% raise. But it was too late, I already had a job offer in hand, and put in my 2 weeks a few days later for ~30% more

      I had to wait a few days so my 401k was 100% vested before I bailed, put in my 2 weeks on the exact day it vested, internally was laughing my ass off while saying thanks for the promotion

        Haha my last company was a complete mess. My overdue 10-15% raise came AFTER I put in my two weeks. Meant my PTO balance got paid out at the higher rate lol
