What was your raise this year and did you think it was fair? Tagged as: Average Raise What is this strange word you use…raise? I work in the healthcare industry, and this will be year 2 wothout getting any type of raise. The upside is that we have pretty good health coverage and the out of pocket costs for my plan only went up a few bucks per month.
My husband is a teacher and has had his salary frozen for 2 years due to district problems. Their insurance costs went up a little too. List another in a the no raise department here. Just learned today its not happening.
On the one hand, I am with you and happy to have a lucrative position. On the other hand, I am ticked. Sadly, while I understand why companies are leveraging the current climate to their benefit I am consulting business owners and suggesting they be careful. I am seeing first hand how this environment is negatively affecting morale and loyalty. No raise here either. I did get a bonus albeit much smaller than usual. Thank you all for sharing your stories and sorry to have even complained at all!?

Until nominal wages are rising by 3. And it will take wage growth of at least 3. In truth, the economy and workers could benefit from consistent wage growth significantly higher than 3. This figure shows the cumulative gap between actual average private-sector nominal hourly earnings and what these earnings would be today had they matched the 3.
Consistent wage growth at or above 3. Notes: Shaded areas denote recessions. Consistent wage growth of well over 4 percent would also allow the labor share of corporate-sector income—the share of corporate income received by workers in the form of wages and benefits—to begin to make up its recent losses.
This figure illustrates the labor share of corporate-sector income since Typically, the labor share rises during recessions because profits fall much faster than wages during downturns.
