What is the fastest way to raise wages in the TI industry?
The most frequently answered answer must be: job hopping!
Some time ago, a post like this on Zhihu sparked discussions among friends in the IT circle. Some netizens asked, "Is it too much for programmers to change jobs and ask for a 50% salary increase?"

Opinions differ on this issue
A netizen said: Three and a half years of background development, if it is at a normal level, it will be less now.
A netizen said that it depends on the base salary: generally speaking, 20% is relatively reasonable , and 50%, unless your ability is very outstanding or the last job has a result that is urgently needed by the next company.
Otherwise, to be honest, no company will accept the requirement that your salary when you leave the company and the salary required by the next company reach 50%.
A programmer veteran with 6 years of interview experience shared his experience and opinions:
Is it too much for programmers to ask for a 50% salary increase? It is not excessive at all, but it essentially depends on what stage you are in and the workplace environment you are in.
In the first 4 years of my graduation, my salary has been doubling and rising:
The first job, salary: 2000
The second job, salary: 4000
The third job, salary: 10000
…
So I asked, is it reasonable to double the salary when you change jobs? Of course it is reasonable, because the starting point is too low.
Moreover, there is not a single factor affecting salary. Factors such as city, industry, company, position and personal ability all determine your salary level to a large extent.
So it is said: Putting aside the background of the problem and talking about the conclusion are all hooligans.
Therefore, there is no standard answer to this question, and it still needs to be analyzed on a case-by-case basis.
For programmers, as the working years increase and the technology and ability become stronger, the salary will naturally rise higher and higher, and there are many cases where the salary increase is 100%. The most important thing is, don't define yourself, keep improving yourself, and your salary will come naturally.
If the interview goes well, you will naturally get a high salary. So how should the salary be negotiated? How can I get a higher salary? Here I will share with you a few tips for job-hopping and salary negotiations .
Clarify your own professional ability
First of all, you must clarify your own value. With your own experience and ability, how much salary can you get in this market environment? If your own professional ability is average, how can you ask for a high salary?
One's own skills are the capital for salary negotiation. If one's own ability is fully worthy of one's expected salary, then the salary increase is within a reasonable range; the salary that exceeds one's expectations also depends on whether one's own strength can meet the requirements. Otherwise, you can jump in, but you can't hold it, and you have to get out in despair in the end.
Clarify your salary floor and range
Combine your own city and your own base salary to formulate feasible salary expectations .
The city where you are located determines the salary level of this position. According to the salary level of this position in your city, you can see whether your salary expectation is reasonable.
Your own base salary determines the bottom line of salary. If you change a job, your salary must be much higher than before. If it is lower than this level, it will not be considered.
Understand the salary system of the other company
In fact, the programmer's salary does not depend on your original amount to a certain extent, but on the new company's salary system. For example, if the lowest price of cabbage for a new company is 40W, then it is normal for you to double the 15W in the past.
For example, if the new company offers you this position at only 20W, then it is normal for your 23W salary to be cut in the past. In a sense, how much money you can get depends not entirely on your ability, but on the company's ability.
Those employees of large Internet companies with an annual salary of one million, if they switch to ordinary companies in non-Internet industries, they will be able to get 20-30W.
In fact, to put it bluntly, the information on the market environment is poor. You don’t know how rich the other party is, and the other party doesn’t know how poor you are. would be more feasible.
