What’s the biggest raise you’ve ever received? For me, it was around 15%, which felt like a solid boost, not just financially but also as a sign that my work was valued. It definitely gave me extra motivation to keep improving. I’d love to hear if you’ve had any memorable raises or surprises like that!

I've never gotten a raise that substantial while staying in the same job. I have jumped that much, and more, when changing jobs. The raises I've gotten while staying in place tended to be less than 10 percent. And these days they seem mired in the low single digits, which, from what I gather, has become commonplace.

Never had any significant pay rises, which is very sad! However, I took a decrease in pay for a phenomenal work life balance and its worth so much more than a pay rise to me

Sheesh! That's great! And I'm sure well-deserved. I've been with my office almost 2 years with no bump in salary, but I genuinely love what I do and can't see myself going anywhere else just to be paid more. I know I need to work up the courage to ask for a raise, but I'm just not there yet. Did you ask for that 15% raise or was it just given?

While staying in the same role? 10% I guess. While jumping companies? 80%

I’ve only ever received 5% raises from staying in the same company, but I made a 25% increase from switching employers a bit ago.

Our district is so lax on the students this year. With tech issues and distance learning days, we’ve gone from accommodating to enabling real quick. No penalties for late work, taking excuses for attendance, lower academic and behavioral standards... We were beginning to make so much progress on transforming our school culture, but this year is erasing that and then some. Is anyone else concerned about how to raise the expectations and students’ self-discipline back to pre-enabling levels?
