The year I started work was the year fresh grad are commanding only $500 to $600 in audit firms. Increments throught the years were pathetic. Moral of the story is: DO NOT STAY TOO LONG WITH ONE EMPLOYER. LOYALTY DOES NOT PAY.

In the first place your mentality is wrong. How much you are paid is dependent on the responsibility of your job and market supply and demand. It is not based on how much you know or how long you have been with the company. Do you expect a MBA holder to be paid $10k working as a cleaner for 20 years?
For a senior accounts exec who don't manage people, $5k is good. Otherwise, how much do you think you are worth?
