I moved up within the same company. It's definitely stable in my experience. A lot of execs can't live without an EA. During a conversation with one I support, he was horrified to learn a client he needed a meeting with did his own scheduling and not through his EA.

I started my career as an AA to a CSuite executive and then moved to an EA role to 2 Csuite execs in another company. All my EA roles have been C suite.
I get recruiters in my inbox all the time. So I'll say there is a demand,but for experienced EA's.

Any suggestions on how this might be addressed?

I am in the process of finding administrative assistant interns from our local universities.

Are there alternative titles that you find more appropriate for 2022?

Hi- I’m an hourly AA, been on the role for 6 months now and it’s my first AA job. I did not get a raise when I took the job because it was technically a demotion ( I was a team leader at a contact center). I assist two VPs and now they want to add a third because they’re looking for the “ 3:1 ratio “. Should I ask for a raise? Is this normal? I know another AA that handles 3+ people but idk if she’s hourly or salary. Any thoughts?
