[quote=bearishgurl]They got $20K just for defecting to the other company in January 2012 and then another ~$16K raise in July. PLUS a much more comprehensive benefit plan. And now they’re in line for ANOTHER raise/promo in July 2013.

Graduated May 2011 but finished all credits December 2010, so only out of college 3 weeks before starting first position in SF in January 2011 (without actual degree in hand).

This never, ever would have happened in my kid’s field in SD. Not in a million years.[/quote]
With your last paragraph, I’m assuming your kid is not in tech. That’s pretty good to get $36k increase after 2 years. Seems like your kid’s field is hot up there. What would your kid pay be like if he/she jump to a job in SD today?

I’m guessing $40-$50K and prob have to wait until somebody dies to get a promotion. But they likely wouldn’t get hired here over other, more fluent, Spanish speakers.

That’s the way it is in SD in many business positions.

So, is it safe to assume then that for your kid’s profession, they’re getting paid over 2x compare to down here?
