2006-Salary increases

[Road Guy]

What was your salary increase this year?

 

[RIP - VTEnviro]

11% for me, but that included a PE raise as opposed to typical annual increase.

 

[FusionWhite]

I got a 1.25% raise after being with the company for 3 months. I dont get a real raise until my first review which will be in April. Im hoping for ~5% at that time.

Don't know yet. My final review (we have about 3 total) will be today. I will find out my raise, if I get one, I've only been here about 5 months, and my bonus check. But I have to wait until 3:30 and then I could wait around until at leat 5:30 to get it.

There are a lot of smiling faces around, so I think everyone did well this year. :thumbsup:

I recieved a large raise on the thought of getting the PE from passing the October exam....

What a Fool I am....!!! I don't feel real confindent about passing....

Do you think that they will make me give it back..???

I got 25% in August as a result of passing the PE and finishing my masters.

We get our normal reviews in March so I hope my August raise doesn't impact that too much.

I made $22/hour starting. After 8 months, a 2 month delay in my 6-month review (I was uninformed there was such a thing), they bumped my pay based on performance to $23/hour. I make straight overtime, so I'm now making around $60k assuming 47 hours per week. Not bad I suppose considering that I only have 6 years of experience.

You need to add in a choice for "negative". Our salaries were cut 10% across the board due to major budget shortfalls in our government. (Even though my particular salary is 100% federally funded, but they don't care about that). I'm hoping for a PE raise (if I pass and am licensed), but I'll probably still be in the negative column.

 

[Road Guy]

damn that sucks

 

[TxKat]

I work for a state government and we all got a legislative increase of 3%.

 

[jd_chi02]

3.3% - Thanks to the board

 

[PEsoon2B]

Greater than 10%.

I went from $8.50 to $9.78/hr

 

[rleon82]

$30K+ raise after passing the P.E.

 

[civengPE]

$31K Raise after passing PE and getting a new job.

 

[rleon82]

Why you have to top me by $1K? :brick:

 

[DVINNY]

$0.23 / hr. raise after staying where I'm at because of failing PE

 

[petergibbons]

I got 15% after passing the PE last April making my measly salary a little less measly. I get 5% more at the end of January for having 5 yrs exp.

 

[petergibbons]

Wow, rleon and civengPE, those are very impressive numbers. What do you guys do? I could use a little inspiration. I've heard that one of the greatest temptations in life is to settle for too little and sometimes, sadly, I think I am settling for too little.

Peter, I am into project management of land development in Florida. Knowlegde in permitting and drainage design is a must down here.

Keep looking you will find better employment.

 

[civengPE]

Rleon,

Mine was actually the same as yours, but just had to beat you! :tone:
