That, as you might well know, depends on your qualifications and skill level. When I first started working in a corporation I received very good pay and benefits but I also had a very strong knowledge, skill and talent level. They offered me an attractive package of pay, benefits, bonus structure and working conditions so I accepted it. Now I have not exactly advanced far as I've only received one promotion in 15 years but that's compensated for by my bonus structure and annual pay increases that almost always exceed the rate of inflation. You are right, Educators do not receive these considerations. Why not?
