For those of you that haven’t gotten a promotion over the last couple of years, how much has your salary increased? Mine has only increased about $4.5k over the last 3.5 years and I’m starting to get frustrated and consider looking elsewhere since there’s not a lot of promotion opportunities. Anyone else in a similar situation?

My base has only increased about $5k.

It’s my bonuses and RSUs that move the needle. If I’m looking at TC, including equity, I’m looking at about a $225k increase.

Wow that’s amazing! Good for you.

Personally, I haven’t gotten an increase since joining my new firm almost 3 years ago, BUT when I joined, my base salary increased by $90K.
Unless you have reason to believe that you’re in line for a great promotion any time soon, it’s time to start looking. Jumping to another firm is usually the best way to get any type of significant increase.

So true! Thanks for sharing your experience

Minimal increases over the past few years. Rare to see much increase in staying in the same role. Currently looking at external roles that are a level above. If I’m going to make a jump, it needs to count.

Totally relate to this!

My increase has been between 2-3% and I have been looking elsewhere

I’m in the same boat. You almost have to if you think about how long it’ll take to get anywhere meaningful, especially with inflations.

I have been looking elsewhere for that reason. My compensation hasn't increased much over the years and I should be making a lot more than I am now. I am looking for something else to hopefully increase my base.

Exactly! This job market has been tough for employees and raises.

I am a registered sales assistant which means I have my series 7. I also have the 63 and my Life & Health license. I was a financial advisor but the role is commission only so I decided to take a role as an assistant for some time to learn etc. I really like my role, but I only make 32k a year and after taxes I only take home about 25k. I have a gut feeling that I’m not being paid market value but it’s tough to find comparable salaries. Do you think $15.38/hr is a fair wage in this case?

Currently a Wealth Advisor for Citi but I honestly hate it here with a passion it’s the worst company I’ve ever worked for in my life and I’ve been in Wealth Management in the banking channel for over a decade. Series 7, Series 63, Life, CFP, ChFC, and soon to have my MBA with a focus in Mergers & Acquisitions. I’m look to enter another area of Finance at this point instead of starting over somewhere else from scratch, but not sure what direction to go. Interested in Investment Banking or M&A.
