re: A 3% raise these days is laughable

The only way get real increases is to look for another job. I've been working professionally for over 25 years and the process is simple. I'm always looking for another job at 20% higher than my current pay. I might go years before getting it but when I do it means my market value had adjusted to that level. I get an offer in writing that my current employer can either match or I'm on my way. Easy peasy.

You are correct. Pretty much the only way. I am on the verge of an offer right now that will range between a 57% and 100% raise over my current salary (based on the salary range for the new position). I could work in my current job for 30 more years and never touch the opening offer for the new job. There won't be any counter opportunities. It's just time to move on and do for mine.
