3.5%, but at least the 8% bonus took the sting off a bit.
What's your private sector payrise?

Nothing last year, let it be as was still saving a few £ in commuting & childcare due to WFH
4% this year, but really had to push for it due to rising costs of everything.
If they ever want us back in the office I worked out I'll need ~15% just to break even, without accounting for my extra time spent commuting

Even thought our team performed well, and I got almost the same epic review as last year.. it was pitiful. Almost certainly down to the massive acquisition the company just did, which is just so ridiculous.
Had 5% over 5yrs. It was 10% in yr 1 then another 5% yr 2 but that rise was suspended as covid hit and took a 50% pay cut for 6month while working through lock down then had unrised pay restored after 6month of pay cut then reinstated pay rise in yr 3 then stagnant pay. So average 5yr was a mere 5% total.
Left the job, got a 15% rise.
But got mates in civil service and teaching jobs moaning about 80K salary and 35hr/week working condition and have to go into Whitehall. I am like get really guys!

30% by switching jobs, after having 3% for the last 5 years. Don't undersell yourself, don't be loyal to a company that isn't loyal to you

I got 5% this time, only told this week and it probably won't start for a while.
I asked a couple of my friends earlier, they both got 8% from their employers.

Not bad for a 142 year old man

On a more serious note, mine seems to be the equivalent of about 5.3% each year, along with 2x £1k payments in the last 12 months. And then there's the free shares and bonuses. Just in the middle of accepting a new role in another project though so a grade higher salary with bigger bonuses. Next year should be interesting for sure.

Sneaked in 9% last year as 'Top Performer' within my team. Was very pleased.
This year, they changed the metrics, no 'Top Performer' (though I saved my Company millions in losses again), got a 11.8% rise.
In real terms it is less, but ain't moaning. 20.9% over 2 years and I know I am on the higher scale against my peers already.

Top performer yet you:
1. Add two percentages together for gross percentage growth
2. Get the addition wrong
Please send me your bosses deets so we can undo

Basically this. In the first years of my career the increases over a long term as an employee left me behind my colleagues that moved roles, then I was made redundant. I am worth the job, if you think more then sure give a bonus but I am not counting on it.
I've taken a pay drop between my previous role (inside IR35) and this role, my take home is about 40% of the previous role but I like the challenge which is why I took the role. The new role renumeration is a decent amount. It's simpler but it has some annoyances like not being completely responsible and having committees decide everything. We'll see but let's get past the August remortgaging

5% on base pay

10% which is a little down from last year in percentage terms but a little higher in monetary value alongside a 14% annual bonus
Zilch.
Times are tough for everyone, especially when you have just bought the missus a model y and let a staff member go and not replaced him and are constantly busy.
Oh to be the owner of your own company and treat the staff like ungrateful slaves.

Mine was only 5% which was disappointing so I interviewed elsewhere and got another offer, told them I'm leaving only to be offered an additional 15% to stay.
Employees need to be brutal to employers in the same way they are to employees. They only offer the raise they believe would retain you and if you want more, you gotta make it clear (by your actions) that raise was not enough to retain you.
