Should I ever leave?
So I joined a remote startup last June. Yearly reviews happened back in February. Got “meets expectations” as my review, which made sense as I probably had a 6 month ramp up, after that I was working well as an IC without much guidance, moving at a good pace. Was told that I should expect “exceeds expectations” next year if I keep working as I have been after that injtial ramp up. Anyways when it came time for salary increase I was expecting 4% or so, pretty standard raise. Nope, 11%. A 11% raise with just meeting expectations. Went from 125,000 to 138 and some change.
Before this I was planning on job hopping every 2 years or so, get my TC up. But if this 10%+ raise happens every year, do I even job hop? Leave once the 10%+ raises stop happening? Id think even if I could hop to 175, 10%+ raises arent going to be a normal occurrence else where.
Do I just ride out my current role as long as possible?
