Right? I'll take 15% added to my paycheck for the holidays haha! I only got a 3% increase this year, which feels like almost nothing, to be honest!

Same boat here too!

It seems like most raises are stuck in the low single digits and I can't imagine we'll be seeing any Black Friday Specials when it comes to salary boosts. Every news story about the economy this year was about "uncertainty," and that kind of negative sentiment seems to have taken hold. The best we can do is be hopeful that 2026 sees some kind of turnaround.

It feels this uncertainty has been looming since 2023

It’s incredibly difficult. Best option is to jump companies every few years

Team just applied for a TS Clearance (defense agency). Trying to assess if it makes sense to wait till the clearance comes through (6 months to a year?) before I job hop. I'm hoping to get some clarity on the following:
1. Can my company withdraw or cancel my clearance if I leave right after I secure a TS?
2. In terms of compensation, how much value (% compensation) does a TS clearance have in the DC area? Places I'm considering: AWS, Azure, GCP, Data bricks, Appian etc.
Any advice, thanks!

Started a new job a year ago, high performer. My manager suggested a promotion to Product Manager since that‘s the work I’m doing, but that would be a 50% raise. Higher ups decided instead to make a “new role” (not PM), that has no analog in the company and is hard to price via Glassdoor, etc. I feel like this is to limit my promotion salary to something like 10% from where it currently is. Is there anything I can do? FWIW: I have a PhD from top 5 program and am working in that field. Thanks!
