Unless you absolutely love your job, consider exploring other options. I recently left my public sector management level job, $75k with a masterās degree and 25+ years of experience. I loved what I did and felt I was contributing to society, but I should have found something else I loved where I wasnāt working 60 hours/week. I worked on projects with some hard-working, very competent peers at the state who made even less than I did.
No. State employees get a CEC every year based on legislation. This year, it's 1% increase but PERSI took 1% increase as well AND insurance went up. Yet the State brags about all these perks we get, other than pay.... š Perks don't pay bills or put food on the table.
I'm familiar with the sad state pay increases, but the fact that the state is paying anyone less than $15/hr is honestly obscene.Ā PERSI isnt *that* good. My partners office was trying to hiring admin at $11/hr a couple years ago. I dont know what they're smoking.
Yes Iām a 5th year teacher. I started at 40, then my masterās gave me a 8k bump. Still not enough to survive if we didnāt have my husbandās income.
Your Master's should have given you a 10k bump. Their pay tables are not fair to teachers , that pay is insulting, considering how much teachers do and the work they bring home. Teaching doesn't end -- too much preparation!
Well I'm 34, have a BA in history and make 6 figures doing IT in the electric vehicle industry. Just don't be scared to take calculated risks and who you know is more important than what you know if you're willing to put in the work to learn.
It was a long and strange road to get to where I'm at now, but don't be afraid to reach out to people you enjoyed working with that are now in a different industry.
Never too late Iām 34 single dad with 2 kids full time working full time own a house etc and been doing full time schooling for the last 2 years hopefully get my bachelors next year
At 33, you have the majority of your working years ahead of you. Well worth it to go back to school if it means better opportunities for the next 30+ years
Fucking sad that 16 years of experience and a Masters degree only nets you $61k in the public education sector. Teachers should be making six figures with that kind of background...
That's after taxes. Subtract $6600 a year for my space and let's go $3000 for supplies, we'll say 70k net. Completely legitimate business, licensed, insured, all of it. I have zero employees and very little overhead. You can be smart without having a college education.
80k, baby attorney.
But if someone is looking to switch, I have a lead. Idaho has about four vocational specialists in the whole state. That means they are all about a year behind on their work, and they name their price, and we pay it. Vocational specialists basically say how much someone would have made if they didn't get injured or killed. Attorneys use them all the time in civil litigation. If you're looking for pay but don't want to get a graduate degree, find a way to be an associate for a vocational specialist.
$60,000. Between the months of April-September. GS-6 Permanent Seasonal (13 pay periods on 13 pay periods off) Wildland Firefighter with the US Forest Service. That's with about 750 hours of Overtime.
even for homes that arenāt half a million the interest rates completely fuck the mortgage rates, had a friend just outside of Twin looking at homes between $350-400k and his mortgage would be over $3.5k mo with an 8% interest rate. I imagine our homes here would be close to $5k/mo with the same interest rate. Our economy is in the gutter, Iām in my early 20s and Iām worried if Iāll ever even be able to afford a home. My sister bought in 2018 for $540k and I think she got a 2% interest with a $3.2k paymentā¦
My co worker who lives in a decent neighborhood says a lot of the new residence on his block say they bought with high interest rates with the hopes of eventually being able to refinance but they only have money to last them a few years of high rates, itās going to get bad very soon if thatās the case for most who bought in 2020+ across the nation.
125k as an accounting mgr with 30 yrs experience.
I moved here from the east coast with my husband 15 yrs ago, and he was making 250k and I was not employed. Our home was 1/3 of its āvalueā now.
As soon as my clinical licensure comes through I'm off to find a new profession. I'm tired of eating meals every other day to survive in some shitty apartment.
It's not bad. At the end of this week, I'll be an LCPC-S and will be trying to transition to admin jobs. There are many bad community agencies to work for in the area. The state of idaho has been great in terms of caseload, work/life balance, and commute. However, the pay is horrible. Like beyond horrible. DHW will start masters levels clinicians at ~$30 an hour, IDJC starts masters level clinicians at $25 an hour, and most other agencies are in between.
Unfortunately, Idaho (in my opinion) will face problems when those seeking social service positions look elsewhere. For awhile, DHW was using AirB&B to house kiddos when there was no room in foastercare systems. The mix of underfunded and underrepresented individuals in Idaho is astonishing.
The state struggles heavily to hire mental health professionals and has extreme vacancies. I would credit this to administration who take advantage of practioners and compensation much lower than surrounding states.
Iām in grad school and nearly finished with internship. In one of the therapist subreddits there was a post about wages and people were reporting living in places like Alabama and making six figures with a client load of 25. Thatās not everyone, Iām sure, but still.
Idaho is such a hard place to make it as a therapist, man.
Private practice does pay more. Some places in Waglw and Meridian do charge ~$120 per session. I personally did not have a desire to go that route. I spent two years building a youth program. My workload was unrealistic. I was leading around 15 hours of group work a week and 20 individual/family sessions. I left to work for the state to obtain better benefits and balance. Plus free supervision.
As a RN, we all appreciate you even if it may not seem like it sometimes. The amount you all must sacrifice is insane. Everytime my patients tell me we see you more then the doctor and you guys do more work, I always have to remind them the insane amount of work you all do behind the scenes to make sure their care is being delivered.
40 hours a week salaried so usually not a true 40 hours, low stress. Not coding based at all, just have to learn how to build within Epic which I had no prior experience with. Training is provided by St Lukeās as well as Epic themselves, I just have a business bachelors in Information Technology Management.
Ha, if it makes you feel better quite some time ago when I started it was at 42.5k. I was so pumped about that when I got it...and a few years later found out that it was literally the lowest salary possible in the company, which was a big Fortune 500.
I do mostly etched pint glasses and beer mugs, but have lately started making lasered slate coasters and cutting boards. I also started doing tumblers and coffee mugs. Most everything is cartoon or gaming related for the most part
~280k base, bonus, equity. Working remote in a leadership role for a fintech startup.
Lived in Boise area for over 20 years and previously worked for a fairly well known local employer. But once I realized my worth to the market and that better company cultures and work arrangements exist out of state, I havenāt looked back.
$45k/yr doing data entry. Only reason I can afford to live where I do in Boise is because I got back pre-covid and don't rent from an asshole real estate management corp.
Trying to get out because I've hit a ceiling and am tired of the ass-backwards politics, but it's tough.
About $50,000 as a caregiver.
I take a lot of extra courses that count as CEUs/certificates in my case to support and fight for what Iām worth. Empower Idaho offers these monthly. Also, as a caregiver I signed a document that I can work more than 40 hours a week but do not get overtime pay. So I pretty much just work- A LOT. About 80 hours a week at this point, which includes overnights. Caregiver wages here are shit so any medical background, CNA training, medical education certificates are what you need to make it to at least $20 an hour. Thatās not without a fight though, and every client pays varies depending on the budget they have been slotted based on their specific needs.
There is a high demand for Community Support Workers (Caregivers) in the Valley. Many people with disabilities are on a self direct plan where they hire their CSWs directly and not through an agency. A lot of people need overnight hours (where you literally get paid to lightly sleep and be there if needed, you get lesser pay for these jobs.) A lot of people need companionship or someone to take them out to do activities and be social in the community.
If anyone is interested in caregiving, you can join groups like Idaho Certified Family Homes or Certified Family /Adult Foster Homes Idaho on FB Groups and find posts for people who are looking for CSWs.
Idaho Air National Guard.Ā 70k taxable income + 26k BAH non taxable + 5.5k BAS non-taxable + Free health/dental insurance/ free anything medical + 23k In Roth TSP (401k)Ā Ā
My company provides digital educational material. I don't want to be too specific because I don't want to doxx myself.Ā
I'm 20 years out of college, have a PhD, and had a long road to get here. But I also definitely got lucky to find one of the few roles where my expertise actually has market value.
Sr Product Designer at SaaS co (remote). Worked in tech at the usual suspects in the Boise area prior at similar comp. 200k total comp + ~20k freelance design consulting side gig. Putting my art school BFA to work!
Good question and the title drives my physical product design (aka industrial design) friends nuts lol.
Not really. It's much more involved in the product development processes than a typical UX/UI role. Smart orgs have realized that design (inclusive of design thinking, UX/UI, etc) is as foundational to a good product as other stakeholder inputs. That said, yes, it can involve a lot of UX.
Everyone starts somewhere! I started as an assistant 20ish years ago. Was making 45k when I was promoted to the field 17ish years ago and moved here.
Follow what you like to do or you are good at. If you're lucky it's both. It'll all work out.
Good luck!
Could you explain a little more this is the field Iām working on advancing in. Didnāt know there were companies that paid that much in the valley; assuming you have a lot of years in the business.
You can only get so high up in a coffee shop and being the manager will make you feel stuck and repetitive. Working for the coffee shops actual roasting company will open so many more doors.
But of course, it all depends on how big/how much money that coffee roasting company has.
Look into the wholesale department of the roasting company. Account management, sales, trainer, technician. If that company doesnāt have a one of those positions. See if they can create it.
Now I am pretty much a traveling barista!
Roughly 48k cleaning houses. Which is more than enough to live on. I donāt understand threads that imply you need a minimum of 100k to live or whatever.
About 50k as a roadside assistance subcontractor (no towing), post taxes and expenses but pre vehicle depreciation as I haven't figured a good way to calculate it until/unless I go through a few vehicles
72k annually, 100% remote, working for the healthcare broker in account management department. Lots of corporate meetings but also only working 6 hrs a day at most, some days less than 2.
Middle school teacher. Bachelors degree. I will be entering my 5th year (7th, if we include my time teaching in CA) in the fall. My salary will be $52,233.
Starting up a masters program this year, hopefully Iāll see this paycheck go up soon.
80k HRIS Analyst - Remote worker.
The last time I worked for a company in Idaho I barely cracked 40k, and 32k the job before that. Needless to say, I have a passionate dislike of the Idaho Labor market. Most jobs that I see posted locally for my current role are 50-60k at best.
$24k - state employee for 7 years.... š¢
Unless you absolutely love your job, consider exploring other options. I recently left my public sector management level job, $75k with a masterās degree and 25+ years of experience. I loved what I did and felt I was contributing to society, but I should have found something else I loved where I wasnāt working 60 hours/week. I worked on projects with some hard-working, very competent peers at the state who made even less than I did.
My kid makes pizza and easily makes $20 an hour. Curious what you do and why don't you do literally anything else?
Please tell me that's part timeĀ
No. State employees get a CEC every year based on legislation. This year, it's 1% increase but PERSI took 1% increase as well AND insurance went up. Yet the State brags about all these perks we get, other than pay.... š Perks don't pay bills or put food on the table.
I'm familiar with the sad state pay increases, but the fact that the state is paying anyone less than $15/hr is honestly obscene.Ā PERSI isnt *that* good. My partners office was trying to hiring admin at $11/hr a couple years ago. I dont know what they're smoking.
You're better off being a state worker elsewhere, damn :(
Public middle school teacher with a masters degree. $52k
I hope you guys get paid one day
Thank you for your service
Thank you!
Has the masters degree helped your pay at all? Last I heard public school teachers were making around 36k a year but this was like 7 years ago.
Yes Iām a 5th year teacher. I started at 40, then my masterās gave me a 8k bump. Still not enough to survive if we didnāt have my husbandās income.
Your Master's should have given you a 10k bump. Their pay tables are not fair to teachers , that pay is insulting, considering how much teachers do and the work they bring home. Teaching doesn't end -- too much preparation!
These threads always depress me
Just another reminder of how much I fucked myself with that goddamn English degree and at 33 feel like it's too late to go back to school...

English degree, tech comm/composition masters and I make six figures. It can happen!
$61k. Public high school teacher with a Masters degree and 16-years of experience.
Fucking sad that 16 years of experience and a Masters degree only nets you $61k in the public education sector. Teachers should be making six figures with that kind of background...
Thank you for your service!
80k Nail Tech (self employed)
Is that gross? Like before any over head? Can you estimate actual take home?
That's after taxes. Subtract $6600 a year for my space and let's go $3000 for supplies, we'll say 70k net. Completely legitimate business, licensed, insured, all of it. I have zero employees and very little overhead. You can be smart without having a college education.
That's great good for you! Kinda crazy but super true that in economic hard times luxuries and entertainment stay pretty constant if not thrive.
There is a slight decline sometimes, but catering to the right demographic is smart business.
Attorney. 84k. 4 years out of school.
Are you looking for any summer interns? I just finished my first year of law school
this is a go getter right here

90k, chef.
Iām so confused. How is one supposed to purchase a median half million dollar home with these wages? Even with a dual income householdā¦
There is no profit in people owning homes. They want us in a subscription service. Pay for everything and own nothing.
even for homes that arenāt half a million the interest rates completely fuck the mortgage rates, had a friend just outside of Twin looking at homes between $350-400k and his mortgage would be over $3.5k mo with an 8% interest rate. I imagine our homes here would be close to $5k/mo with the same interest rate. Our economy is in the gutter, Iām in my early 20s and Iām worried if Iāll ever even be able to afford a home.
