Sounds like we just want to make a livable wage after being promised for over 2 decades that going to college would pave the way to a promising life. I’m so sorry to break this too you, but you’re too old if you don’t understand times have changed and business is just behind. But if you like crushing dreams while working under a billion dollar ceo that is all you love.
Your job expectations are most likely insane 🤣you must be an old person by the sound of that last sentence. Just old and grumpy 🤣
I’m not sure where companies are getting their stats, but 24k isn’t that big of an overshot. 100k/year today still has a lot of people living pay cheque to pay cheque.
The spending power of younger generations is approximately 4-5x lower than the boomers, output and efficiency per employee has increased by 4-5%.
Personally.. I think a CEO can live off 4 million a year instead of 9 million. Pay employees fairly rather than hoarding the wealth to spend on yachts, vacation homes and your 3rd Ferrari.
The CEO of gravity payments paid everyone 70k a year as a base salary and they were all happy. I don’t think the younger generation is delusional - we’re not interested in selling our soles to be paid with Monopoly money. When you can’t get an entry level job without experience, but need the job to get experience but they won’t give you the job without experience? That’s a broken system.
Fair work for fair pay is exactly as it says.. FAIR. Companies right now are trying to roll back wage gains in the past few years while costs keep going up - debt slavery is the modern corporate “dream” if you’re not paid fairly.
