I'm curious about what is the "norm" for yearly pay increases in the Buffalo / WNY area. I was getting 1-2% per year when I worked at non-profits and it's not any better at my for-profit job, I actually worked my tail off to qualify for a 3% raise, which was cut to 2.5% for "budget reasons." Inflation is 3.4%! This is why people are forced to job hunt. I had a job interview and the interviewer said that was pretty typical for this area, which crushed me. Is 2.5% the best I can get?

Non profit usually pay less

Who was your interviewer? You also have to remember that if the actual number at that company where your interviewer worked was more like 3% or 4%, of course they’re going to tell you. It’s a lower percentage. That way they save money.

I would try for 3-4%, even though the market is really tough now i think it’s worth trying

When I negotiated my comp, all my discussions were around me being a junior and I only accepted my comp for that reason (would not have accepted if I was step above junior since it was low). Negotiations happened with HR, but my offer letter and documents never mention junior (but I have proof from HR saying I am a junior). How do I approach this with my boss as I’m not sure she’s aware I’m actually technically a junior? Revolving around asking for a move up + raise
