GetRaised is a service that determines if the salary you are receiving is fair. It is the current project from the web collective Churnless.
The website is very simple to use without the need to register. The salary assessment is free. It took me about 1 minute to get my results. The salary engine is fed data from government reports, current job postings and users information, to ensure that the information it displays is correct and up to date.
If you’re underpaid it shows you on a graph where you are and what the average salary is. If you would like to use the service further you are then asked to register. It then asks you to pay a $20 fee and answer a few questions to create a custom Raise Request letter to show your boss. It also offers advice from experts in employment and human resources. If you haven’t received a raise in 6 months the fee is refunded. The average raise earned using GetRaised is $3,078.
Competitors include, Payscale and Salary both have a harder to navigate website and a far more arduous process to quantify the average salary in a certain field.
If you’re looking to start a new job or want to quickly check to see if your salary is fair give it a try.
