Why do companies give you a salary bump for switching vs just paying you at the level they are bringing you in at?

Lol. NO! To keep overall liability and lifetime costs of the relationship as low as possible on their side. Do you seriously not understand how much of the cost of employing you is directly tied to calculations based on your base pay? "Balance you out".... No. Every penny avoided, for however long, is straight to their bottom line, every year you stay, for as long as things get calculated on a base pay + % basis.

Hi SpEd Teachers, is anyone else facing EXTREME staff shortages as a result of state funding? We are not able to meet my students' IEP requirements (not even close) due to not enough paraprofessionals and the district flat out refusing to hire more. I've lost 70+ hrs/week of para hours over the past few years and my students are really suffering. This leaves our district open to lawsuits, but the real problem is the state's education budget. What can we do?? This isn't going to fix itself.
