I’ve been at the same hotel for three years and still make the same as new hires. Thinking of switching companies just for a raise. Is job hopping the only way to get better pay in this industry?🙃

You know it. Loyalty will get you nowhere. Three years is about the max length I'm willing to stick around at one job. You're hemorrhaging money to inflation if you stay longer.

Yeah I think you’re right!

It sure seems that way. I have only ever gotten significant pay increases from job hopping. It seems like companies don't give out more than a 3-5% raise in any given year, no matter how good of a year we had.

Yeah I think so too!

It’s not just this industry but most industries and jobs…unfortunately loyalty to a company doesn’t get you much these days.

Yeah it definitely is unfortunate about loyalty not getting you anywhere!

Not the only way, but certainly the best pay. I’d give it a try to see if they are willing to give you a raise, make the case. If they won’t budge, definitely move on.

Yeah I’ll see how it goes I think!

I had two rounds of discussion (more than a month ago) and the recruiter informed me that they’ll be scheduling the HR discussion and then be rolling out the offer.

It has been two weeks now and I haven’t heard from the recruiter nor has my HR discussion been scheduled.

The recruiter does not answer my calls or reply to e-mails.

Misled on Maternity Leave Policy. I found out I only get 4 weeks pay for maternity leave (STD +“sick days”). I will take 12 weeks but wont get paid for 8 weeks. I work for a US, west coast based company in the tech/VC industry. Their website claims to offer “paid parental leave and other progressive benefits for parents”. I didn’t find out until after I was hired their pay was only 8 weeks but since I have been at the company less than 12 months, I don’t qualify for their policy. Is this unfair?
