What’s the minimum percentage increase in comp you’d look for when applying to jobs or are contacted by a recruiter? Assuming you’re doing well in your current role and not desperate to leave.

Look at your total reward. Many people will leave for 10-15% more but the benefit premium and/or time off for example will vastly eat into the increase and thus is it worth it if you’re not desperate. I add benefits, PTO, 401k match, ESPP match, and give the min to make it worthwhile for me to consider moving. Good luck!

Nice try HR!

For me, 0% if work environment is good

like

Not a %. 10-15k is enough for me if the hours aren’t longer

Probably 10% base if TC is 25% better.

40% or no deal. Not really life changing if under.

I want to say at least 25-30% of TC.

20-30%

20%+

I would take a cut if the WLB was better.

0% if better WLB

20% base increase minimum. Unless it's definitely less work/hrs, then smaller base increase is fine.

Hey Bowl,
I work for a late stage(ipo) start up, earlier this year we were acquired & since then they got rid of our yearly bonuses and gave us an ESOP grant.

In a recent All hands we found out that this year there will be no pay raises nor promotions based off merit. Is it time to jump ship?
