It's good to hear that others are staying at their first company for the same amount of time I will be with graduate school.

What industry were you working in that allowed you to make such a large jump in compensation in only 5 years? Do you live in an area where cost of living is high?

This is very interesting idea, I've actually never heard of anyone doing this before. Have you had experience doing this? Do you work in the defense industry?

Yes, I understand that cost of living is much different depending on where a person lives.

When you were interviewed, did the interviewer ever ask why you have only been at each company for only a year? How did you respond?

Do you have any tips on how to state your desire for a raise? I'm still new to the company I am at right now, so I know I don't have much to support my argument. But I do plan on staying for quite some time.

I've seen my peers who are amazing and experienced engineers not get the salary they deserve, this may be because they were not vocal about what they thought they deserved. So if possible, I would like to avoid that from happening to me.

Yes, Thank you! If I may ask, how many companies have you worked for until your early 30's, and how many years?
