abstract = {The relationship between the worker?s career path and wage growth is studied using a
longitudinal sample of large firms. The econometric analysis shows that promoted workers
receive a positive wage premium even if they stay in the same job level. Demotions are
associated with negative wage premiums. The wage-career dynamics generates a U-shape
to the wage premiums for promotions over the hierarchical ladder. In the context of the
model discussed, this shape suggests a stronger learning and/or human capital
accumulation effect at the bottom of the hierarchy and a stronger job assignment effect at
the top.},
