| 1289907 | 2012-07-22 09:57:00 | Yeah call centers are a great place to gain experience and insight into corporate worlds. Well worth doing a stint there for anybody in IT. @pctek, Grats, it's awesome to get a payrise and be rewarded like that, no matter how small! :) |

We bought another company - Hosting Direct - most of it anyway, and took their support guy, I think he got paid more than us, and of course they had to keep him on that, not drop his. |

| 1289912 | 2012-07-22 21:47:00 | Yeah...I didn't expect it, had been told payrises were a rare occurrence.......all good. The company i work for last gave a cost of living payrise of 2% about 6 years ago. Nothing since even though we heard that last year was their best record for years but we suspect that the money is going across the ditch to subsidize a loss making operation over there.. |

| 1289913 | 2012-07-22 23:29:00 | yeah, system administration is in support i guess, | ijusthadit (16796) | ||
| 1289914 | 2012-07-22 23:36:00 | Maybe support yeah .. but companies use names loosely. Just b/c the job is called a Sys Admin, there's diff types of it. Would that be the same for a big govt dept or Telecom or Alcatel? If out of uni, you want a Sys Admin role, sure you may heard your university tutor got one, yep, but they got head hunted on campus because they were a top honours/masters student. And they might be working for a big international IT firm. |

| 1289916 | 2012-07-23 01:39:00 | 40k is flunky wages. Yes but its a wage.... and a job. Theres no shortage of IT techs willing to work for $40K . So I guess no real incentive to pay much more , especially when jobs are hard to get . I got 2K payrise last year. I wont get another for many many years. |
