Sixty-eight percent of workers expect either a 3% or 5% raise every year, according to the latest reading of an ongoing query by Comparably. More than 5,000 workers in and out of the technology industry were polled.
The breakdown
Thirty-six percent of people expect a 3% raise, 32% expect a 5% raise, and 14% of people expect no raise at all. Raises of 10% or more were the least common, with 13% of people saying they expect a 10% raise and 4% saying they expect 15% or more.
The split among men and women was mostly equal.
Snapshot by city
While the most common answer in every city was either 3% or 5%, a significant percentage of workers in some notoriously expensive cities expected a salary of at least 10%. Those cities included San Francisco (27%), Los Angeles (23%), and New York (26%).
