In my trade (machinist, non-union) pay increases are all over the board. From none to drastic. Cost of living increases are very rare. Ya gotta earn them, and then you only get them if the shop is doing good. This is a real tight buisness, always having to be "lowest bidder", and shops can go years and not see a real profit. My last pay raise was about 4 years ago, and was about 20% or so. I've pretty much peaked out at this shop.
