First post here -

I mainly work within the tech space in my company - only person minus the IT Director. Small boutique firm that focuses on environmental / conflict / fed consulting space.

Been there 2 years, only make $58k and feeling extremely underpaid still even though I went from starting at $50k.

I'm stuck. I love the company / work - but I also want to level up. Should I look for another job? How much is even reasonable to ask for a raise?

I think you should be asking for at least a 10%-12% raise and see what they offer in return. Plus, no harm in looking for new opportunities.

I'm not in the tech space, but Glassdoor has the average salary for tech consultants as ~$100k. If this is correct, then you are likely going to need to find a new job.

At what point does the value of a degree fall off? I'm in my early 30s, and have five years of experience, and work on a very theoretically interesting project. I believe I'm on track to promotion in the next year. So, I could put in a year of full time school to check the box off, but I'd be sacrificing hobbies and social life (not to mention cost). Is this FOMO or is there real opportunity here?
