Economic Mobility

Career Mobility

Promotion velocity, occupation switching, and ladder steepness across US and Canadian career paths.

The SalaryScope Career Mobility model scores how quickly workers can climb each occupation ladder, switch between adjacent occupations, and compound pay over 10–20 years.

Promotion velocity

How long it typically takes to move from junior to senior to lead — by occupation and industry.

Occupation switching

Which adjacent occupations offer the best risk-adjusted pay improvement.

Ladder steepness

The pay gap between entry, mid, senior, and lead bands — and which occupations widen fastest.
