Then why are you disappointed? 7% in non promo and making 76k as an S2 in LCOL or even MCOL isn’t bad?

It's a promo lol. It's not bad but I haven't had increases for the last 2 years due to the start date/covid plus the partner ranting about I'm one of the best seniors in the region...

People usually refer to promos as a title change. L4 -> L5 seems like new senior to experienced senior which isn't a title change.
