What are you talking about? The average Engineer and IT worker with 4 years of work experience make under $80K.
Just do a simple math, an Engineer starts with $57K, he got 3%, 5%, 10%, and 3% raise and he is still under $70K.
[quote=BWell_SoCal]In my experience, it’s more like $115K/year with just a BS in those fields and only four years of work experience. Travel required.[/quote]
