I took a new job in Q4 for a 30% pay bump and just accepted another new job for another 30% bump. Market is wild right now.

Edit: to clarify, zero regrets

69% bump. Nice.

Accepted a new position 22% Increase in Q1 last year then they did a 20% adjustment in Q3

Starting a new position for a 30% increase next month.

Given my background it would have taken me years and years to reach this and put myself in this trajectory.

No regrets

Nice, almost double!
