I also just got a new job jan 1st. Submitted applications for a few positions, got an interview with 1 and an offer. 40% salary increase. Meanwhile my company was talking about how they couldn't offer any raises because the job market was so bad right now lmao.

Negotiated myself a 15% raise last year by getting a competitive job offer from a neighboring firm.

Admittedly, I'm not a Stanford brat getting fuck-you high six figures from Palantir for doing fancy powerpoints at the DoD. Maybe that's the jobs that are going away.
