Episode notes
Supply Chain Pay Bumps
- Supply chain and procurement roles will likely see significant pay raises in 2025 due to talent shortages and a focus on cost optimization.
- This trend may stabilize after 2025, so now is the time to capitalize on these opportunities.
Tech Sector Growth
- Tech sector roles, especially data science, cybersecurity, and AI/machine learning, will also see growth, but less than supply chain.
- Strategic roles in these areas can expect increments of up to 20% when changing jobs.
Job Hopping vs. Staying
- If your skills are in demand, consider changing jobs for a potential 20% raise in tech, compared to 2-5% for staying.
- Companies focus on retention through flexible work, well-being programs, and other benefits beyond salary.
