I’ve been doing more than my job description for just about half a year. Annual performance reviews are coming in a couple months. I plan to ask for a higher raise (vs 3%). I’ve also researched and average salary is about $10k more than what I make.

When asking for a raise, how do you balance your personal performance with industry standards? Do you lean more on your achievements, or on market data? Which has been effective for you?

I think it could be both. Average industry standards and personal performance. What other people are making does matter because you could be making more elsewhere, and they need to be reminded of all of your contributions.

I normally speak more about personal performance with some market insights as benchmarking!

Focus on your performance and impact to the business. Quantify the value you’ve brought. That alongside market rates should put you in the best position

Team just applied for a TS Clearance (defense agency). Trying to assess if it makes sense to wait till the clearance comes through (6 months to a year?) before I job hop. I'm hoping to get some clarity on the following:
1. Can my company withdraw or cancel my clearance if I leave right after I secure a TS?
2. In terms of compensation, how much value (% compensation) does a TS clearance have in the DC area? Places I'm considering: AWS, Azure, GCP, Data bricks, Appian etc.
Any advice, thanks!
