Expected Salary?

[Misc_User]

I'm currently seeking opportunities in IT. I have 7+ years of industry experience. I got an increment with a promotion in July, 2019. Now, it's just "2 months" shy of "2 years".

So, Is it OK if I set my next salary expectation (at a future workplace) with "40K increment"? (Previous increment at my current workplace was "20K")

I feel it's right. Anyway, I'd like to know your opinion.

Please don't waste everyone's time with "nonsense". Just please reply only if you have experience in the industry.


Thanks in Advance!

Last year, we got a bonus. No increments. Probably due to current situation.

Give more information on what you do, What your qualifications are and what your history is. You say you have 7+ years of experience and still you are Ok with 40K per month? That is a bit confusing.

I have been working for my current employer for 14 months now. Last month he gave me an increment of 400$. Does this mean I will be getting an increment like this every year?

I've been working as a "Senioir "UI/UX Engineer".

What I mean by "40K +" is "40K increment".
Let's say my current salary is "80K". So, I'm talking about "120K" as my next expectation.

Post your current salary too, it will help the people answering you.

compare your current salary with the increment which you got, if the increment is more than 20% of your current salary then it was acceptable

I would say we don't have a straightforward answer to this. I would consider following.

1. How critical I'm for the operations.
2. How is my relationship with the management.
3. Most importantly, your current salary.

I'm a SE with 7+ years Exp. My last increment came after 18 months. Compared to our previous annual increments it was more than 2 times. again, factors I mentioned above played the role.

PS : It would be helpful to us all if you can update this thread once your increment is settled.

GOOD LUCK.

WoW. Are you getting 20% increment here in SL every year? What is the rough base salary for getting this percentage?

Increments are normally viewed as percentages. If you are at 80K and going to 120k that is a 50% increment. So they will naturally question why do we need to give such an high percentage? What has he done to deserve this etc etc.

This is true. Usually annual increment differs from 10% - 30%.
But again, this varies on lots of factors
