Help! My Friend Gets Paid 36k Per Month As A Graphics Designer For A Big Company by Nobody: 11:15pm On May 31, 2020
My friend who dropped out from uni a few years back because of lack of funds, just told me this evening he gets paid 36k per month and I was beyond surprised. I mean this guy is extremely good as a designer. His designs are amazing. Yet he gets same pay as the company's security men!

His excuse is that he doesn't have a degree yet so he can't ask for a raise!
I feel so bad for him right now, I don't know what to do about this, he has been with this company for over one year now.
And according to him he works over 50hours per week.

I want to advise him to pursue for a raise, but I'm not so sure if it's the right thing to do for him since I don't know many designers personally.

But do you guys think he should push for a raise regardless of whether he has a degree or not?
Does graphics design require a degree for a company to consider your worth as an in-house designer?

Your friend should keep his job and get freelance jobs from fiver and upworks...


These should raise his income ..


There is nothing like a steady source of income.
