Does your employer take inflation into account when offering annual raises?

We get a 3% salary increase per year for costs of living but I think that is standard regardless of current inflation levels

Salaries relate to the market for labor and not inflation. Inflation is an average figure across the economy and could be taken as an indicator, but it’s not the right way to do it.

Say you have a small simplified island economy and the price of imported gasoline goes up a ton. Employers in the island won’t be able to pay more just because of that price increase that they don’t benefit from. It’s likely everyone on the island just gets poorer.

I got a remote L6 SWE offer at Google but the RSUs are too low for that level ($625k over 4 years), could not negotiate it higher. I’ve accepted the offer but trying to be hopeful that I could make it more equitable in the future if I perform well. Are stock refreshers based on the initial RSU grant or solely based on performance? Google

Is it misleading to just look at Total Compensation from a $ dollar value/ Total Compensation seems to be much more subjective than base salary in terms of its value. Some factors might be:

RSUs granted on dollar value or by # of shares & stock price trends
Vesting schedule
strike price on ISOs & delta between strike price and real market value

For instance, most of value in Amazon's comp seems to be granted in years 3 & 4, but it's well known that most people last only 2 years max there.

Starting to see a lot of compensation threads and even within the same city, the variance of salary is really noticeable. I didn’t expect the spread to be this high, especially in high COL areas.
