How much has getting a certification helped you find a new role or get more money? Am a technical project manager in banking with a CAPM making 95k at 4 years of experience. It seems like all of the roles that pay 130k plus are looking for a PMP but it is literally the same work. Is it similar in other fields too or do I just need to go and get the cert?

If this (industry, position/project management) is what you want to do, why not get the certification? If you’re looking to leave project management, then I wouldn’t worry about it. Unless you’re on the gov consulting side I have not seen the PMP hold much value.
