Labor shortages and inflation will keep the salaries high for years to come, especially, in high skill jobs. The real danger is that universities will start to crank out a large number of engineering graduates. But that's unlikely, since it takes a select few to enjoy engineering as a career.

Don't count on your current employer to keep their wages competitive.
