Any other job gives yearly raises. The CEO gets one every year. Let that sink in. They don't care about you, the backbone of the whole industry 💯

This been the case for most medical industries, it became more transparent in 2020-2021. Now, again, no longer transparent, however, they are absolutely getting a raise yearly (with bonuses) while their employees beneath them not so much.

This is one of the reasons I left healthcare. From 2010-2019 my wages increased every couple of years and was above inflation. After 2019 that all changes. Wages went stagnant. Some places I was around actually tried to lower wages
Fast forward to Dec.2023 the current business wanted to do 2, 2.5, or 3% merit raises... Inflation locally was 7%. I left in May and I have no interest in returning anytime soon.

If they haven't given you a raise by now . Then they aren't planning to.ever give you a raise. you should ask the point blank for a raise listing all of the ways you contribute to the company. reminding them that you haven't gotten a raise in 7 years. If they deny you. Then its time to start looking. You can expect a 15 - 20 % pay rate increase when you jump ship to a new company.

Sometimes you have to leave and come back to get the raise you deserve or you have to go directly to HR or your supervisor and ask for a raise.

Stagnant for the past decade . Everyone cutting salary and then adding " performance pay " to get you back to your old salary . Longer appointments never happen .

The business arm CEO made > $20 million Telling me that " Drs work 60 hrs a week " " you're salaried" Really ? SO tone deaf .
And they wonder why very experienced providers in primary care are retiring early , AND they can't fill positions .

I only get raises when the government gives something to healthcare workers ("cost of living"). I do not get annual raises though.

Oh, absolutely! I'm currently in a legal dispute with my former employer who was giving me annual raises to get me to the salary I should have made in the beginning of my career. I spent the first 5 yrs of my current career working for a nursing agency and during these years they steadily gave me raises to get me to the salary I have now 5 yrs later. The kicker is them finally paying me what they should have 5 yrs ago and manipulating me into believing that I'm been given raises all of that time, which is absolutely false, they've just been "spoon-feeding" me my own salary at a lower rate of pay, lol.
