How common are raises these days? Received 3% last yr and 4.5% this yr…non promo yrs. Manufacturing company. Really conflicted as I have offers for 65-70k more and support my wife and I. I really like my leadership as well. The new companies, I would be back in my specialty as well.

Seems like you should leave, $65k is a lot.
At minimum ask your current company if they can bridge the pay gap.
Since you like your managers this should not be a difficult conversation.

What is this "raise" of which you speak?

I've been working at my current job for about a year now and I'm finally beginning to understand how the company works.

It's not easy, though. It's a small company, which means there are only a few of us in each department. There is no dedicated training team, so we all have to learn new things on the fly through trial-and-error or by asking our coworkers for help. The management team seems to be pretty hands off when it comes to project management and project direction, so it's up to us engineers to figure out how we want to spend our time and who we want to work with.
