Hi all, I’m currently a solution architect with 1yoe and two bachelors degrees. I also hold two cloud certifications and make 60k a year. This seems very low considering what I’ve seen for average SA salaries for those who hold the AWS SAA certification. Was hoping for some insight on this and if I should seek more compensation. Thanks!

Seems low but you also only have a year’s worth of experience. Get some wins under your belt and bring them to your manager at your next performance review. Ask for a raise after doing some research on Glassdoor re: salaries at your company or comparable. If they won’t bump you, apply elsewhere and ask for $90k.

Certs are great but managers want to see real world experience.

One year experience, 60 k seems about right

I feel like every company lies about “working your way up.” You’re never allowed to blatantly say that you don’t like your position and you’d like to transition to HR or Finance. It’s almost as if once you get in claims, you’re stuck.

If you’re a manager and you see an employee that wants to branch out into a different department, why would you keep them boxed in for 2+ years?

Are there some background mechanics that I’m missing?
