The other problem with that assessment is that the person is progressing in their career, they are not just getting cost of living adjustments. For myself (who is not a rockstar employee) it is way higher than 3.5%. You can't just compare average to average.

Hmmm not overly familiar with the methodology or compilation of this survey. It seems like a relatively regular/detailed document for a specific profession that I don't see for many others. Seems like a reasonable place to start - or completely useless then?
