Is the only way to get a great raise jumping companies? Is it hard to get a raise from being promoted within? (Wondering if its true what everyone says) .. What is your experience with this? :)

Raises without title changes are tough. Especially in holding companies.

You need a great boss who will fight for you.

Every significant raise I’ve ever received came from jumping around between companies. I was making six figures after six years, which is a pretty decent trajectory I think.

At the bigger holding company-owned agencies, yeah, definitely. Indies, ymmv, but also probably yeah.

Why would your company promote you from within when they can just give you the extra work to do at your current salary/title? 🤔

I really do not prefer one company over the other. They’re both great! I’m very confused here. TIA🙏

Currently at a job where I just don’t like people or the work all that much. Fewer clients possibilities (we’re basically an in-house team) than our sister office plus I have no desire for a promotion. Sister office is much more of an actual agency plus the culture is way more up lifting- I can vouch personally. I would love to transfer to the other office or just look for new opportunities. How do I bring up wanting an internal transfer without making it sound like I will leave otherwise?
