Hey everyone. Trying to get feedback on salaries here. Have 5 years experience and PE in Civil. Mostly work as project engineer type roles but do aid in a lot of Project Manager type task with the way my company is structured as well as mentor two of the younger engineers or my team but don't directly manage them. I work mostly in public sector for consulting firm in southern Louisiana. I am pursuing my PLS license as well and will have that in 3 years. Does $37/hr seem reasonable or low?

With a PE you should be able to find a 6 figure role if you relocate and network/touch up your resume. For Louisiana public sector it’s an okay wage.

37/hr is low even for South Louisiana. We are blessed with low cost of living, but you’re still selling yourself short.

Come to South Carolina.
