People are getting raises though. We recently left a long period of stagnated wage growth.
My last raise was less than $2k/year. Our CEO got a raise of $50k… inflation has turned my “raise” into a loss. They’re throwing Pennies at everyone hoping they think they’re getting millions. Don’t fall for it.
