if you are in banking, opportunities abound. if not, just hop a few times and you will get your increments. this is so unlike in engineering.
I agree, i have seen friends in banking sector moving up in the ladder faster than engineers. Most engineers earn 5k on average in mid 30, whereas a typical banking employee in 30s (assuming working in bank since graduation) would reach vp level where average pay is at least 15k a month.

I have not heard any engineers reaching 15k a month by mid 30s
