Since you have experience I would suggest going to major corporations with more than 5 - 50 employees I worked at corporate offices for well known companies with over 5000 associates which entailed alot more work. Or ask if you could take on other tasks like conference room scheduling or taxi and limo service ordering for guests and employees or offering to order all catering for the company. This in turn would require that you get paid more.

I agree with Jaycee. Consider going back to school for something you can make more money at. Most companies have a cap for a front desk position. I finally realized I was maxed out and went to school for medical coding. Just landed a fantastic job making way more than I did as a front desk person. Good luck

That's exactly what I did. I asked for more responsibility. When I wanted to move to another department they said I would need to take a $3.00 pay cut. Eventually, I got the job change and filled in for the front desk. While also continuing to get pay raises.
