Message: [QUOTE="OttoinGrotto, post: 3824675, member: 297"] Millennials figured out a few things. 1, the biggest pay increases are associated with title changes. So, if a person wants to maximize their income (or feels they need to thanks to soul crushing student loans), getting a promotion as quickly as they can makes sense. 2, but also, at their current company, a person might be looking at a 3% annual increase, but if they're recruited away and join a new company, that recruiter expects that they're going to need to offer something in the neighborhood of 10-20% above to get that employee to jump. And very few companies will make raises that aggressive in order to retain their people. 3, so the best combination really is to get enough experience that a person is an intriguing candidate to be recruited by someone else into a position above where they currently are. Don't hate the player, hate the game. These are the rules organizations collectively decide they want to play by. [/QUOTE]
