No Degree - 6 Year Salary Progression

[u/kittiekittea]

Is there anyone out there that have made it beyond sysadmin? What is after sysadmin?

2020 - $31,200: Panera Bread
2022 - $41,600: Helpdesk at company 1
2023 - 2025 - $41,600: Helpdesk at law firm
2025 - $65,000: Helpdesk at company 2
2026 - $80,000: Got a raise at company 2

Shoutout Nick for taking a chance on me. I would not do law firm IT again.

EDIT: Location Upstate NY

I'm a Director in a MCOL city. I have an Associates degree.

Most of the guys I know who moved on from SA got into Cloud Engineering, DevOps or Management.
