just from my experience.
i received a 18 percent raise last year for my 2 year review.
this year i am back to the 4.5 percent deal.

LOL..
Yeah I can't speak for the entire market, just my area (and then only
slightly), but I'm relatively sure that if he's where I am, he'd better not
be holding his breath... I know several developers that chased that dot.com
money and were making the "michael bucks" they aren't now... Times have
changed for sure.. Ego's don't pay the bills either.. :-)

"Tell that to Michael, a coder skilled in Java, C, Pascal, Fortran, Basic,
JavaScript, Perl, XML and CGI:
But Michael's still holding out hope of finding full-time work at his old
high $110,000 salary. "
Perhaps Michael should spend some time learning CF before looking for his
next job.
