Currently interviewing for a role that has $200k base and $320-400k TC 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻 if I get it it would be an 16-45% increase on what I’m making now. And who knows with 5 years down the road.

I’m aiming to reach $70,000 this year and move toward $120,000 in five years, with steady growth and peace of mind. I want roles that pay well but don’t eat my weekends. I’m also exploring side income streams that align with my values. How do you balance ambition with sustainability? I am open to how to better get there!

I'm working towards 100k this year, after 6 years at my level. I'm in a MCOL area and don't have a ton of expenses, but I still have that 6 figure goal in mind to help increase my savings. In 5 years I would hope to be even closer to 150k but I don't know if I'll cap out lower than that due to my location.

My goal is to be earning $150k in five years.

Aiming to $200k in 5 years.

I’m seeking promotion within the next year and hoping for ~$150,000 - a ~20% raise. Next 5 years? Hoping to reach 6 figures in my side project + land around $200,000 after 2 promotions.

State of living matters. Midwest city now 150k, goal reaching 200k in 5 years.

Do you get the feeling that there is a higher image promotion of women/minority people in Tech?I have seen way to many pictures from major tech companies that promote far more women/minorities than white males in their marketing materials.Wouldn't be better if we hired the best people no matter what the race/gender is?I know some companies are not publishing any gender/race stats but you cant't really demand a 50/50 ratio.Also there is no coincidence that most execs is some companies are British. So this goes both ways.

What should I do in a scenario where I was hired (12+ years) with far less salary than(~20% less) than other members (4+ experience) in team and asked to take 80% of team's responsibilities. The hiring manager low balled me sensing that I am in dire need of that job and now I am stuck for 2 years now. The company is a big shot but I am literally getting paid less than what I used to make 10 years ago. Should I try to move within or look outside?
