Here in Washington State it has had some effect. At my work, we had many people leave because their salary wasn’t on the high side of the range even though they were more senior. We also had hiccups in hiring because candidates come in asking for the high end salary but then their experience is abysmal to say the least. But then you train this person for 2 or 3 years for them to actually be of any use, and they leave because now they got something to chase a higher salary with. A small company can’t afford to raise salaries all the time, specially if it’s for people who are in training and don’t even know it. Anyway, to give you a clue, if you fuck up like 5 times and nobody gives a shit, you’re still in training. However, if you think you’re gonna fuck up and upper management call a meeting to discuss the status, then you should probably ask for a raise.
I wonder if this could help the IT workers from the public sector in Germany (E12, around 2500 €/month).
Anyone knows why it is like that?
Once, I heard about some speculative extra amounts made by guarantees in purchases. (Germans love guarantees, and any hardware purchase has a 50% surplus that can easily be split 1:1 between vendor and whoever was in charge. Yes, it would be illegal… But nearly impossible to prove.)
I work in the Dutch public sector in IT, but with a few years of experience, I’m already beyond 4k/mo.
Sounds like the union isn’t pulling it’s weight…
You’re net salary is beyond 4k? Are you hiring?
It’s gross, not net. The net amount is like 3200.
E12 starts at 4.170,32 € gross and up to rises 6.516,74 € depending on experience. That is gross. That is for a job, which is low stress and you can not be fired unless you pretty much commit a crime on the workplace.
