Friendly reminder that if your company doesn’t give you at least a 6% raise this year to account for inflation, they’re essentially giving you a pay cut. Time to start looking elsewhere!

Right? Sadly, I doubt most people will even realize they're getting screwed.

Love this reminder!

How would you go about asking for a raise based on inflation?

cite changing market conditions?

What if I only started 5 months ago?

This hurts

thank you for this reminder, I really needed to hear that. Perhaps Jan will be my new job, new me time!

My company blames my generation for not being able to hire everyday. “You guys don’t want to work” coming from some overweight, racist, old coaster. I’ve barely taken any days off this year and pick up “skeleton crew” days any chance I get. I was able to work out a deal with my company before I came because of prior experience luckily, but they offer a terrible base salary and sham of a commission structure to new hires + no remote. Then sit here and can’t figure out why…
