(7,263 posts)Have only had a few of those in my working life, and none after 1982.
I am effectively making the same salary as I was 20 years ago. And the only way I'm not making effectively less is that I am a consultant so I'm not tied to the internal Corporate wage increase structure.
In my field, there is no real internal horizontal path to a bigger salary - one has to move vertically externally to achieve that.
