Construction Mangement Salary Expectations (6 years in)
Posted on 10/8/19 at 4:39 pm
Posted on 10/8/19 at 4:39 pm
I'm thinking about asking for a raise at my current job and wanted some input on what I should be asking for or if I'm getting paid like I should be.
Info:
Bachelor CM LSU 2012
Been working at small GC in BR since 2013
So been here for 6 years.
Last raise was 3 years ago.
Making 60k,plus 600/mo truck+cell check
5k bonus every dec.
No profit sharing / 401k plan
No health benefits (I just buy thru marketplace)
I love the job, we do about 3-5 mil in projects a year. I do the estimating, about 40% of the project management, and go to progress meeting etc..
What should I be looking for or how much am I underpaid?
If anyone wants to chat about it but wants privacy:
golddigger2828@gmail.com
TIA

That sucks

Engineering PM's are making triple that with full benefits. I would look to change industries and go more industrial if possible.

Forgive me but is the vehicle/cell stipend taxable?
If so, you're only really receiving $400/mo
60K + 4800 + $5k = You're getting screwed each year

I can't believe you posted this online. Come see me in my office right now...

You’re either in a job that doesn’t really require a CM degree, you’re highly under paid, or you make a lot of mistakes in your job that your boss has to fix which is why you’re not paid more.

Buying through marketplace for health insurance is a major swing in take home pay.

Man, no offense but that’s absolutely horrible. Get on with a different company. You are being screwed. You should be over 100k by now easily.

Go work at Starbucks. They probably have better benefits than your current job.
6 years and last raise was 3 years ago and 60K is it?
Time to find another job bro
eta my first year out of college many years ago, I was paid 62K and I made a 15K bonus the first year. You are really underpaid.

Came hear to say what everyone has already said.

You need to change industries ASAP jack. Go industrial.
Posted on 10/8/19 at 4:52 pm to GoldDigger
Plus benefits, insurance, yearly raises, and bigger bonuses

I was making 80+ in 94-99 no college and got tired of travel.... got sick of traveling and dot engineers.

Change to industrial.
You’ll make 2.5x that off the bar and have 401k, insurance, etc....no truck allowance though and i work industrial.
