Why Job Hopping Boosts Your Salary More Than a Raise
from Job Hopping with Fexingo: Tenure, Loyalty, and the Modern Career Resume · host Fexingo
In this episode of Job Hopping with Fexingo, Lucas and Luna explore a surprising finding: changing jobs every two to three years can increase your salary by 10 to 20 percent per move, while staying put typically yields annual raises of just 3 to 5 percent. They drill into a 2025 ADP study that tracked 2.5 million U.S. workers, breaking down why the gap exists and what it means for your long-term earnings. Lucas brings data on how job switchers outpaced stayers by 8.2 percentage points in 2025, and Luna pushes back on the hidden costs—like lost retirement vesting and network disruption. They also discuss industries where the premium is highest, including tech, finance, and healthcare. If you've ever wondered whether loyalty pays, this episode gives you the numbers to decide. #JobHopping #SalaryGrowth #CareerStrategy #ADPStudy #LoyaltyPayGap #PayRaise #JobSwitch #WageGrowth #Compensation #CareerPlanning #TechSalaries #FinanceCareers #HealthcareJobs #RetirementVesting #NetworkEffects #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #CareersPodcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
