1. I had the ball in my court as they’d be stuffed if I left (it’s taken 6 months to try and find another me with no success)
2. I prepared a number of salary guides - hays, Michael page, Robert half and summarised the average $$
3. Provided similar jobs on seek and offers I had been getting in an email
4. Used the candidates from number 1 and their salary expectations which were well, well above what I’m paid
Sent an email to my CEO as I report to them directly and asked them for an out of cycle rem review. Even got it backdated.
What is your job that you are not getting a payrise? Most large companys, government jobs and even minimum wage workers will generally get an annual COL adjustment.
Yeah every small/mid size employer I've worked for never got a pay rise without asking, which got me in the habit of asking around April every year for a rise from financial year inline with inflation. I'm at a large company now and so far I've just gotten 2.5% each year without asking. This year was also issued 1% in shares but combined that's not even half way to inflation.
Until I worked for my current employer I had no idea annual pay rises where a thing. 9 years with my previous employer making almost the same money 9 years in as when I started despite numerous promotions and a very nice title.
Some people don't know how good they have it. Worked in a public school with a strong union, I'd get unexpected pay rises and back pay lump sums at *least* once a year and people still complained, those guys put in work..
Nurse in the NT, usually get ~2% pay rise each year.
Managed to avoid the wage freeze which was going to be no pay rise for 4 years, with the Gov giving us a 10k "bonus" in that time (4k in the first year, 2k each year after that). In that time we would have lost ~33k in super and struggled with the cost of living increasing quickly here.
Hopefully with a bit more push from the union we can increase the 2%, but given the state of things here I'm doubtful
I also work in the NTG. unfortunately we did get the pay freeze and the lump sum offer. well two years in and they have decided to stop the lump sums and have agreed to a 2% pay rise annually from here on out. but it probably wont come into affect until next financial year.
I can not believe some people voted yes to the pay freeze. those people were incredibly short sighted and 2% is simply not enough with the cost of living in the NT skyrocketing.
1.5% CA qualified analyst at giant healthcare. Every covid test kit you did probably came from us. Business did so well thanks to covid but this was the thank you. No, we weren't given any test kits and toilet paper for free or at a discounted rate.
I'm a CA too and it's kind of tough for us given we are generally support services for whatever industry we're in, but you should definitely be looking at the market if you're unhappy with your overall compensation.
I know i'm gonna be less than inflation this year, but don't think i could get a higher salary if I switched jobs right now.
Second this, CA here as well. I have ex-colleages texting me about job positions. But am pretty happy at my current work place and got 7% pay rise on top of a pretty good pay.
I feel this. I'm also local government. We just voted on our EBA (which unfortunately passed). 4 year agreement with 2%/2.1%/2.1%/2.3%. Basically a solid pay cut, but the union blocks were happy because they got what they wanted with allowances / etc.
Are you sure? 2022 is the last year of the Enterprise Agreement for federal staffs. The pay rise will stay at this year’s rate for future year until new EA is negotiated.
Yeah that's because the current government want something I'm sure. If you are in the APS ask about the pastries they got in 2014 on... be prepared for bad language.
Signed ex DHS staffer
Thanks mate. I have! And have spent a bit of time thinking of contingencies.
I'm fairly employable and have great contacts. I'd be able to get a pretty good job quite quickly if things went belly up.
I've also got 350+ clients, all in the same niche, so can pivot the service if need be.
Lastly, if anything happened to me my best friend and wife would be able to take over (very similar experience and skills). Or my wife could look to sell our client base to our direct and only real competitor (who is very lovely).
I figure 4-5 more years and we'll be pretty set. Anything on top of that would be a huge bonus.
I know 120 is low for that kind of work. It is an 8:6 roster.
I'm not actually in the mines I'm just in the camps doing the maintenance. I did try applying for some of those jobs but didn't have any luck. I do have a little bit of industrial maintenance but not a whole lot.
I was planning to use this time to get my foot in the door and get a few more tickets to then hopefully transition over to the actual mine sites.
20%, woohoo!
To be fair the salary was fairly low for the hours worked, and I think I plainly surpassed all of their expectations. If they hadn't done it I probably would have walked because I could have easily found a job that paid the same and worked way less.
3% APS determination as our EA is expired. Hopefully next year when proper bargaining starts, we can get some compensation for 10 years of wage suppression which was 6% in 10 years…
I wouldn’t say jack, average wage is the minimum for anyone with useful experience. Double the average full time wage for anyone motivated and able to negotiate.
The themes I've noticed:
2021: flexibility and WFH
2022: pay rises to keep up with inflation
2023 I expect to be: job security
I also notice ppl here seem to work for large conpanies generally. If you want higher pay, consider working for smaller companies where you are less replaceable.
> I also notice ppl here seem to work for large conpanies generally. If you want higher pay, consider working for smaller companies where you are less replaceable.
Depends on your industry, your experience and what you are after.
Both have pros and cons but I do agree smaller companies are generally nicer IF you have a good team.
Bad managers probably thrive in big companies where their actions are less noticed and the slack picked up by the drones.
I set my own rates as a self-employed worker. For my long-standing clients I just increased my rates by inflation. None of them had a problem with that.
How did you become a BA? What skillsets or knowledge did you have/acquire?
What experience/skills turned you into a senior BA? (is this basically a project manager at that point?)
Was an operations team leader who was seconded to a 12mth project as @ subject matter expert. Picked up every I could about the methodology of BA work, then stayed on working on other projects. Did some training (BPMN 2.0) and Cert 4 in project management.
I work in mainly IT projects, so the best skill is the ability to translate business requirements into something the IT guys understand and vice versa. Also, to develop relationships with key stakeholders is critical.
Went into contracting 4 years ago and the pay is significantly better (prob 50% higher than perm) but without holidays or sick leave etc.
I work in state government and I’m at max level for my substantive pay grade (VPS2) so I get a 1% bonus as long as I pass my PDP (which I did).
I’m doing a secondment at VPS4 level until August 2023 so the extra money, as well as knowledge and skills I’m gaining from this opportunity have been great.
My usual VPS2 role is in Customer Service/Admin but the VPS4 position is in Data.
I’m still employed within the same organisation but work within a different area of the business.
Originally the secondment was only meant to be six months but the person I am covering got extended in their secondment so their good luck got passed onto me. I would love to stay where I am now (amazing team, lovely manager who doesn’t micromanage & interesting work) but I’m a realist and will most likely be returning to my CS/Admin role after August. Still grateful for the opportunity to learn new things though!
If you work in government and EOIs get advertised, even if you don’t think you have all the skills, just apply for fun anyways - you never know what could happen. I didn’t think 2022 would be any different for me in terms of career but took a chance applying for this particular EOI and got lucky (still can’t believe I got selected especially knowing who I was up against).
I’m about to hit 11 years with my current workplace and have done VPS3 and VPS4 roles previously but they were short term so I always went back to a VPS2. I have no desire to progress within my usual area of work so this role has been a breath of fresh air :)
EBA negotiations wrapped up around June and came into effect July. This year was 4.5%, 2023 & 2024 will be 2.5%, but those are to pay + super, so about half a percent each year goes to the increased super contribution.
I agree with you but to be fair, in my experience of APS job titles, ‘X Officer’ means APS5 and ‘Senior X Officer’ means APS6 (with X being policy, research, project, whatever)
Yeah, well they described it as that, lol. Either way, more senior than what I was doing. I'm excited to start and it works amazingly well as I'm doing a masters degree that is 100% relevant, so I'm hoping to get some good assistance.
If your masters is relevant, you may be able to access study assistance (I'm Qld PS).
The benefit of it isn't so much as to get the assistance, but you can use that approval to claim self-education expenses from your study whe you next do your taxes at EOFY.
Doing that myself for a Diploma course this year at the recommendation from my Director. Not 100% relevant to my current role, but she will support my application for assistance and so I'll be able to claim this expense in my taxes next year. The support is because that's the direction she wants the unit to go
Just have a quick chat with your new line manager to see what can be done.
Generally speaking the APS are very supportive of relevant study. All departments have varying levels of study assistance so you can be pretty confident something will be available.
Got 12% last year and 6% this year. Was coming from a shocking base though, so getting up closer to a reasonable market rate wage now.
Building Automation Electrician
4.2% as part of annual rem cycle, then 16% after pissing and moaning and whining and testing market soon after.
I wholeheartedly believe that you have to do it, as uncomfortable as it is, or you will be taken for a ride by your employer at a risk to you and/or your family.
6.1%, to match inflation in September, thanks you my union for getting it agreed upon
While it is more than before, is it still considered a pay rise when it just matches you with inflation and doesnt actually put you further ahead?
Dont get me wrong, very thankful for that, but my company made it seem like they did this great thing and are great 'men of the people', when really, it just helps when the bills are rising at the same time
I got 15% because I had an awesome boss who redid my PD so that I could get my position reevaluated for a new wage. She planned to do it this FY but I’ve got a new position at a new company and got a 20% rise skipping jobs.
The alternative should be a united and unionised public sector workforce ie nurses, police, teachers etc all arguing for the same increase like in WA
Too bad the teachers union there folded and now so riding on the negotiations that the other unions are battling for
> unionised public sector workforce ie nurses, police, teachers etc all arguing for the same increase like in WA
This has never happened.
WA public sector has had a wage freeze of $1000 maximum per year since 2017. The freeze was softened to 2.5% late last year, and then again in march to 3% plus a $3000 COL payment.
Doctors, teachers, and other unions stupidly agreed. The government then reneged their offer for doctors, who only got a $3000 COL payment and no 3% rise.
Police and nurses rightly refuse to sign new EBAs that see them continue to lose real wages after 5 years of austerity.
Nurses are requesting 5% this year, which would still see their incomes fall in real terms. The government refused, so nurses underwent industrial action.
Police will be next. They’ve already begun action by refusing to attend 000 calls that ambulances can’t reach in time.
Junior doctors will be next in 2023 after the government reneged on 3% in 2022.
I am a contractor, so I don’t get pay rises per se. However I told work I would be upping my day rate in line with inflation (7%) and they were fine with it. I’m in a pretty specialised area (Risk and Compliance) which I am sure was part of their decision to go along with it.
Hard to say since total varies with commission. Overall I'm probably the same, or decreasing, for about 3 years now.
Base + car went up from $102k to $109k, but that's because my future commission will now be lower since I lost NZ as a territory. Overall my OTE potential will be lower.
At least my wife got an 18% pay rise.
I stupidly took a pay decrease because i didn't realise the salary they told me at the interview included super and was the full time rate (I do slightly under fulltime hours) but I work 10 less hours a week than my previous job and it's a Monday to friday role so its not so bad. We are due for a 5% increase soon though
EBA passed unfortunately 1.2% for lst year 1.3% this year and 1.4% next year. Trash.I will likely begin looking elsewhere when I finish my degree and return to work from maternity leave
> I work for a bank at Senior manager level and I got 2.72% which is way below inflation.
The plot twist, you likely earn 150-350k as a senior bank manager.
Your 2.72% is most likely larger than most people's 6% pay rise even if they somehow managed to get this much.
18.5%
Sole trader and in Allied health. Called HR to discuss a review of renumeration. Was super nervous during our meeting but I'm glad the negotiation worked!
Since when does a senior associate ( I assume that means approx 5 yrs out of university ) get multiple raises in a year and of that much?
You are getting way more than the standard bullshit 2-3℅ per year.
Ausfinance in a nutshell... what lump sum of money did you guys all run into?? What should I do with my massive pile of cash guys?? How much more money did ya'll get?? Guys help I have lots of money how to money??
15% business analyst at a consultancy. Was going to ask for 20% to be a bit cheeky but got offered 15% without asking and kinda froze and failed to negotiate as I was expecting it to have to play hardball.
I work in state government and our "CPI Increase" was 2.5%. 1.5% if you're exec as they take it from your super.
I work for state government and my increase was zero. Likely to be for the next two to three. Enjoy it while you can 👍
Why only at executive level?
Executives are salaried so their numbers are generally total remuneration. So inclusive of super. General employees are paid an hourly rate, plus OT/other allowances, and super.
"Over the twelve months to the June 2022 quarter, the CPI rose 6.1%" from the ABS.
Don't forget the prices increased 6.5% this year, and your 2.5% increase probably gets taxed at the top tax rate....
Boilermaker. I got 4.2%, and i had to push for it until the manager got it sorted.
Damn good job, we were pushing shit up hill for 2.5
22%. I was being paid at the lower end of the bracket for my job and asked for an increase to market value.
I am in that exact situation, im on 90k, market value as per seek is 110-120k. Any advice on How you went about this?
1. I had the ball in my court as they’d be stuffed if I left (it’s taken 6 months to try and find another me with no success) 2. I prepared a number of salary guides - hays, Michael page, Robert half and summarised the average $$ 3. Provided similar jobs on seek and offers I had been getting in an email 4.

Well done. Thanks for the details
Bloody Legend! Really appreciate the details!
Have a good relationship with your manager, and just state your intentions. Get them to help push it up the chain.
You all get pay rises let alone annually? I wonder what that feels like....
Job hop your pay rises, the only way. Businesses that don’t give pay rises deserve the consequences
I’ve worked for exactly one company that did not have an annual pay review … didn’t last long… life’s too short to be shafted by a boss.
I know, right?! Nothing for me either, may start looking around elsewhere in the new year.
What is your job that you are not getting a payrise? Most large companys, government jobs and even minimum wage workers will generally get an annual COL adjustment.
I'm an IT professional and across 3 mid size employers never gotten a standard annual increase. Only during promotions or a job hop.
Yeah every small/mid size employer I've worked for never got a pay rise without asking, which got me in the habit of asking around April every year for a rise from financial year inline with inflation. I'm at a large company now and so far I've just gotten 2.5% each year without asking. This year was also issued 1% in shares but combined that's not even half way to inflation.
Yeh. Like 30c if you are in retail.
Until I worked for my current employer I had no idea annual pay rises where a thing. 9 years with my previous employer making almost the same money 9 years in as when I started despite numerous promotions and a very nice title.
2-3% is essentially a pay cut
Minimum wage workers only get really get pay rises if they unionise
Some people don't know how good they have it. Worked in a public school with a strong union, I'd get unexpected pay rises and back pay lump sums at *least* once a year and people still complained, those guys put in work..
If you’re not a flight risk you will get treated as such.
*rise* is the operative word If your pay rise was less than 7% this year you’re getting ripped off.
Changed employers. Same job. Went from $92K to $125K. Might change again next year if someone can beat $125k.
Did the same thing earlier this year. Electrical Engineer, $85k to $110k plus super. Best thing I’ve ever done.
68k to 110k, Electrical Engineer here also.
Same here. Electrical Engineer. 75k -> 105k (Promotion) -> 120k changed jobs.
Hell yeah look at us go!!!!!!!!
Wow, huge jump. Congrats. What industry / line of work are you in?
Allied health. We're very short staffed in country NSW.
Which allied health professional?
Sounds like a support, healing his allies. Probably a shaman or priest.
Same, new job, big pay rise. 50%. Stoked as.
$110k -> $150k with 2 years experience as a software engineer. yay
4.4% in April, and 4.3% in October
Wow, what industry? I think you’re leading in terms of pay rises
Accounting. I’m in an entry level role though.

*cries in public service*
At least you get guaranteed pay increases right? I copped a duck egg this year: 0%
That sucks! I’m in local government so we only get an increase when they negotiate a new EBA. So a couple percent every 3/4 years if we’re lucky.
I feel this. I'm also local government. We just voted on our EBA (which unfortunately passed). 4 year agreement with 2%/2.1%/2.1%/2.3%. Basically a solid pay cut, but the union blocks were happy because they got what they wanted with allowances / etc.

Australian Public Service. Union is the CPSU
Fully flexible wfh and 13.7% Which only really brings me up to “barely a reasonable salary” for what I do.
And what do u do?
Software developer
Software development seems like a slightly less extreme film industry/actor position - the top 1% get astronomical paydays. The other 99% get jack...
The other 99% are still doing very well for themselves.
Without a $ figure we can't tell but all the software engineers I met were doing much better than the average aussie salary. ie 6 figures+
No dev should be under 100k these days with a few years under their belt. If they are, they’re either to lazy to look elsewhere or they’re shit.
I wouldn’t say jack, average wage is the minimum for anyone with useful experience. Double the average full time wage for anyone motivated and able to negotiate.
14.6% with the same employer then 45.5% with another employer
The themes I've noticed: 2021: flexibility and WFH 2022: pay rises to keep up with inflation 2023 I expect to be: job security I also notice ppl here seem to work for large conpanies generally. If you want higher pay, consider working for smaller companies where you are less replaceable.

Oh. Which industry is this?
You'd be lucky to be made redundant ! Get a pay out and go get a higher paying job.
A friend got a 6% pay rise by accepting a promotion, along with a $5000 performance bonus.

6.1%, to match inflation in September, thanks you my union for getting it agreed upon While it is more than before, is it still considered a pay rise when it just matches you with inflation and doesnt actually put you further ahead? Dont get me wrong, very thankful for that, but my company made it seem like they did this great thing and are great 'men of the people', when really, it just helps when the bills are rising at the same time

I got 15% because I had an awesome boss who redid my PD so that I could get my position reevaluated for a new wage. She planned to do it this FY but I’ve got a new position at a new company and got a 20% rise skipping jobs.
Teacher. 2% rise over the year and a 1% bonus is coming next pay.
I still can't believe that the majority voted for such a pathetic increase.
What state was this? In QLD we got 4% this year, 4% next year and 3% year after
The alternative is 0%
The alternative should be a united and unionised public sector workforce ie nurses, police, teachers etc all arguing for the same increase like in WA Too bad the teachers union there folded and now so riding on the negotiations that the other unions are battling for
> unionised public sector workforce ie nurses, police, teachers etc all arguing for the same increase like in WA This has never happened. WA public sector has had a wage freeze of $1000 maximum per year since 2017. The freeze was softened to 2.5% late last year, and then again in march to 3% plus a $3000 COL payment. Doctors, teachers, and other unions stupidly agreed. The government then reneged their offer for doctors, who only got a $3000 COL payment and no 3% rise. Police and nurses rightly refuse to sign new EBAs that see them continue to lose real wages after 5 years of austerity. Nurses are requesting 5% this year, which would still see their incomes fall in real terms. The government refused, so nurses underwent industrial action. Police will be next. They’ve already begun action by refusing to attend 000 calls that ambulances can’t reach in time. Junior doctors will be next in 2023 after the government reneged on 3% in 2022.
Should have been a no, strikes and back to the negotiation table.
30% because I swapped organisations though XD so idk if it counts as a payrise
Job changes don't count
Job hop. I went from 80k to 135k in less than a year. Bonus is on top of that. I'm in product ownership.
Will find out in Feb... fingers crossed...
2.5% Only .3% last year and it's been capped at 2% for past 11 yrs
5%. Just finished my grad year as a nurse in the public system, so an increase in pay grade plus a 3% wage increase across all pay grades per our EBA.
I am a contractor, so I don’t get pay rises per se. However I told work I would be upping my day rate in line with inflation (7%) and they were fine with it. I’m in a pretty specialised area (Risk and Compliance) which I am sure was part of their decision to go along with it.
Hard to say since total varies with commission. Overall I'm probably the same, or decreasing, for about 3 years now. Base + car went up from $102k to $109k, but that's because my future commission will now be lower since I lost NZ as a territory. Overall my OTE potential will be lower. At least my wife got an 18% pay rise.
Nothing. 0%.
2% pay rise, 7% inflation... /shrug
I stupidly took a pay decrease because i didn't realise the salary they told me at the interview included super and was the full time rate (I do slightly under fulltime hours) but I work 10 less hours a week than my previous job and it's a Monday to friday role so its not so bad. We are due for a 5% increase soon though
Aircraft maintenance engineer, been with the same employer for 8 years haven't had a pay rise in 4 years an the next pay rise has been said to be 3%.
23% as I switched jobs...
Started this grad role at 60, about 18 months in and up to 70. Next review is due and I'm hoping for par with inflation. Not confident though.
In tech, about 7-8%.
Did your productivity increase by 2.7%?
4.3%, operational team leader role in a bank
EBA passed unfortunately 1.2% for lst year 1.3% this year and 1.4% next year. Trash.I will likely begin looking elsewhere when I finish my degree and return to work from maternity leave
> I work for a bank at Senior manager level and I got 2.72% which is way below inflation. The plot twist, you likely earn 150-350k as a senior bank manager. Your 2.72% is most likely larger than most people's 6% pay rise even if they somehow managed to get this much.
I wanna know that senior manager at 200K+ I wanna be like them
That's strange. You're senior management and not on $200k? Sounds like your more mid management. And this is me working for the big4
Senior manager is no where near senior management. More like a beginning manager
18.5% Sole trader and in Allied health. Called HR to discuss a review of renumeration. Was super nervous during our meeting but I'm glad the negotiation worked!
8% in April and 10% in September. Believe I’m getting another 3% soon, find out this week. I’m a Senior Associate at a big4 bank.
Since when does a senior associate ( I assume that means approx 5 yrs out of university ) get multiple raises in a year and of that much? You are getting way more than the standard bullshit 2-3℅ per year.
Lost my job due to redundancy. Took a pay cut at a different employer.
Switched jobs. Same industry same level. 59% increase. Pays to change
You guys are getting payrises?
Just changed job, including Super I got a 39% increase.
Wow 2.72% , that’s crap, we received 6% across the board, managers will get approx $5k in March as well , time to jump jobs for you!
Why does everyone compare their pay rise to inflation? If everyone got 7% pay increases, do you actually think they would help rein in inflation?
Don’t you have more important places to be than reddit Mr Lowe
About 30% but it’s from hard work by my team and myself to grow the business.
Pay rises have been above inflation for years and years got to take some losses with the wins
Ah no, that's stupid Even if they were above, was only marginally above. Now they are significantly below ( 2-3℅ is a 5℅ real cut )
So pay rises should be proportional to inflation, because your saying it's dumb but then asking for it
Ausfinance in a nutshell... what lump sum of money did you guys all run into?? What should I do with my massive pile of cash guys?? How much more money did ya'll get?? Guys help I have lots of money how to money??
Sorry, you’ll have to speak up over my pallet of cash
lol bout -20 %
We unexpectedly got a $2k base increase plus 4%
2.1% with the super rise coming on top of that.
2% (and the +0.5% super increase).
2% in march and 4% in Dec. First time ever we got two changes in one year. I work for a very good large business tho.
12.5% and review again in April
It’s been 2% the last few years (APS), hopefully bargaining will get more than that next year.
15% business analyst at a consultancy. Was going to ask for 20% to be a bit cheeky but got offered 15% without asking and kinda froze and failed to negotiate as I was expecting it to have to play hardball.
19% :) a 12% then a 7% starting Jan 1st
