This question applies differently depending on the career. That is, if the job requires fully-trained personnel, salary increases will be generally tied to inflation and market conditions. But if your job is one where the experience increases your ability to do more (such as an attorney or computer specialist), your salary might increase significantly as you move through different levels of accountability and responsibility. If your contribution within an organization proves unique and of high value, your salary might double quickly. So, salary increases are largely dependent on what it would cost the company to replace you. The more common the skill set, the lower the salary increases. I hope this info is helpful. I wish you well. And I encourage you to focus on whatever career brings you satisfaction, not on the career that pays the most. Life is short. Be sure to enjoy it

Alexzandria’s Answer

Pay scale has improved significantly from when my senior colleagues were in the same position I was in. while I was in training we got paid around $47 an hour and once I finish training and I was working we were on reserve where we don't have a set schedule they call us when they need us and they don't when they don't you're guaranteed 75 hours of pay a month and that pay scale after the pay negotiations went up to $90 an hour. I'm on second year pay so I currently make $93.10 an hour and it doesn't go up much per year at the regional level. when you're a captain at the regional level they're making $120-$150 first year pay and then once you get to the major airlines Delta, United, American, Etc. you're making $120 - $130 third year pay as a first officer which is the position that I currently hold. you would make a lot of money when you get to the majors you're projected in about 7 to 10 years to be making well into $300- 400k but that's well late into the career in the early part of the career you make slightly above if not around minimum wage.
