Finding a new job is always the easiest way to get a raise.

Finding a new job is always the easiest way to get a raise.
- muzani 5y agoIt took me 7 months to get a new job this year, despite being approached by companies twice a week. It's not easy, but was a lot easier than asking for a raise.
- diveanon 5y agoSorry to hear that, I had a pretty different experience this year but maybe I’m an outlier.
- muzani 5y agoNothing to be sorry about, I got a good job and a good raise! But it still consumed all my energy for half a year.
- digitalsushi 5y agoI put my stuff on 'passively looking' 30 days ago and I've had 48 people approach me for scheduling interviews. Even though my stuff makes it pretty clear that I don't work on application health monitoring, site reliability, or any of the other modern stealth phrases for 'you are on call', all 48 of them have been for oncall support positions. It's very easy to get a 6 figure job in IT. It's not very easy to get a job in IT that can promise a 9-5 workday.
