Easier and more straightforward to get a position and salary promotion by way of hopping jobs than it is to do within the same company.
It's really sad that this is the state of things but it is how it is.
Sadly true. In my earlier years I watched new hires sometimes start at the same or more than I was getting after 1-2 mediocre raises.
At one of my last longer term jobs, I was miffed at the lack of compensation increases over the last 2 years, so I told them I was quitting. I even said I don't have anything lined up, but I just can't continue knowing the market is paying more. They ended up magically finding a 20% increase for me - where was that before?
