How Profitable
How profitable was your company last month? your division, department? How profitable were you? You have a definite cost associated with you in the companies accounting books, your salary, benefits, the equipment that you use. Add that up and you have the amount that you cost the company.
Now what did revenue did you generate for the company? What costs were saved because of your, this is a kind of in direct revenue. Do you know? Can you answer any of these questions? Are you involved enough in the business side of your job to be able to find out? Are you concerned enough about your career to know who to talk to?
Maybe it can't be broken down individually. But your teams contribution can probably be expressed in a revenue, or cost savings amount. Divide that by the number of people on your team. Now take your salary and multiply it my about 1.3(for standard benefits) and compare the two numbers. If your salary plus the benefits is the larger number then its time to figure out how to do more work so you can become profitable. If the salary is the smaller number congratulations, you might be a good investment. Keep doing what you are doing and keep finding ways to improve otherwise you might find the numbers reversed
