I would like to get an opinion on this situation:
I am a systems administrator for a company on a military base. We are contractors and they deal with third party collections (insurance). Because we are on a base and we use their network there are a lot of sys admin things I am not allowed to do. However, I do provide help desk/IT support for 68 users. Even though I am a manager I have no help so I take of all 68. 52 are in the bldg I am in and the other 16 work in the hospital across the street. Because of how the base has things set up I can’t provide remote help to my remote users. I have to go to the hospital to provide assistance. I just finished my first year as their systems admin (I have worked for them since 2006 in other capacities). I am currently making under $50K a year despite what I’ve seen online that I should be making between $50K – $60K with 0-4 years experience. Is this correct? Am I working for less than I should despite the hinderence in performing all of the standard duties. Also, my raise was at about 2.5% which gives me an extra $88 per month. Is that standard or should I be as upset and offended as I am. Thanks for any and all input.
