Participant[quote=SD Transplant]Ok, time to revive this so please sound off for 2010 numbers. I don’t have anything on my side, but curious about other industries[/quote]
Here are our data points from the past year.
My job (engineer): another 0% raise. Total salary freeze going on – even folks who got promotions are getting their old pay. Next month they will reinstated the 401k match, though. We got bonuses – but again they were much smaller than the formula/metrics called for.
Hubby’s job (architect): No raise. He was unemployed for several months last year and working half time since. We fully expect him to be unemployed again in the near future as there are no new contracts in his office. Also his employer has been cleaning house wrt records, etc… It looks like he’s going to retire and shut the doors. (It’s a small shop – owner + 2 part time employees – down from about 20 employees 3-4 years ago.)
We are living the statistic of real wages being lower YOY.

ParticipantMy increase was less than 2%, about average for my company. But the bonuses were decent. Mine totaled about 100% of salary. Better than last year. Which industry? The dreaded FIRE.
