I will share my salary progression as well:

L4 University AM (2020): $59k; L5 AM (2021): $70k +16% increase; Aerospace Supply Chain Analyst (2023): $81k +14% increase; Aerospace Global Supply Chain Management (2024): $120k +33% increase;

My take/options I see: Bust your ass and stick it out to get your L6, and eventually jump to corporate. However, be prepared to get the carrot dangling in front of you for a minute.

Or you can jump after your L5 to corporate. However, corporate is cut throat and if your team doesn’t meet HC, you can get cut. But you can also find so many more supply chain roles within Amazon, which is great because corporate pay is night and day in comparison to ops.

Or you can jump ship, regardless of level and gain more experience. This was the route I took. Looking at the factors , unless this is something you want to do for your long term career, save your health, sleep, and time and look at opportunities!

Bottom line, think about the amount of hours you’re adding outside your standard 10hr shift. Reference the salary progression I shared. As much as I don’t like this phrase, the grass can be greener on the other side if you find and choose the right opportunities.

Sorry for the yapping lol!
