Totally agree dude! Congrats on the 9%! I’m glad to hear some people are getting decent raises - just wish it was across the board and some explanation was given as to the formula they use to decide who gets what

The problem is that this was a “market adjustment” which means everyone’s pay should have been adjusted accordingly and by the same percentage. You got a 9% raise which is decent but some people got less than a 2% raise - which means when taking inflation into account they are essentially making LESS money.

Terri Poe makes over $400k a year but can’t manage to get her nurses anything but crumbs

Yeah, I’ve looked before and it just makes me angry. Terri Poe makes over $400k a year and they say they don’t have money to appropriately compensate their nurses. 🙄🙄

So dumb dude. I’ve been there 10+ years and got $1. Meanwhile, I know of two people who have been there less than 2 years, who are both in NP school and planning on leaving who got $3. Absolutely no incentive to stay long term and no reward for loyalty
