Strategic professions at the top of the list
Some French people will be lucky, in 2025, to be able to negotiate a significant increase. In first place in the ranking, we find medical managers. With an increase of 7%, these experts, who develop medical strategies and communicate on specific treatments, are doing well in the pharmaceutical sector.

Operations directors, in charge of industrial coordination and sometimes the integration of technologies such as artificial intelligence, will see their salaries increase by 5%.
