Raise Your Glass

 Today I got called in to my manager's manager's office to meet with both of them. I showed them interesting things about Lead Scoring changes, and they liked it. Then they told me that even though I have only been with them for 3 months, we had worked together before and they love having me on the team. They continued by saying that they want to show their appreciation, they worked hard to get hte approvals, and would like to give me a 2k raise. They appreciate me, love having me around, and our CRO told them he thinks I am one of the smartest people he has ever worked with. Not bad for 3 Yechidot math. 

Because no one is reading this, I can say numbers - it will be 28k. Here is my Salary bumps over the years in hitech:

1t:

  • Free - bought me courses
  • 5.5K - Hourly payment of 150 an hour while in Yeshiva
  • 9.5K - Brought on for full time
  • 12K - management decided to give me
  • 15K - I was interviewing somewhere else and told them I am being offer 18K, happy to stay for less but gap needs to be closer
Kry:
  • 21K - Salary requested when I changed company, accepted (1t tried to match but it was more about moving on for personal growth
Pan:
  • 26K - Salary requested when I changed company, accepted. (Kry tried to keep me by offering 24, but I was really hyped about Pan
  • 28K - as of January 1st, and was just let know today.
I reflect some times on those days where I had to wake up early to stock shelves, or even before I was married and was looking for jobs to do remotely. Never in one million years would I have imagined this comfortable, hybrid life, with Tenbis and good conditions. I am very blessed to be in this position. I got my opportunity early, took advantage, and have worked hard every day since. I know how fortunate I am, and I thank Hashem every day for the ability to provide for my family and be able to live a relatively comfortable life. I make sure to learn every day to ensure I remember what is important and who it is all from.
