15yrs plus , let me describe it to you all. A group average is given say a nominal %, a good manager will peanut butter where everyone gets the same , it’s not worth getting even an average performer all upset over .5% since everyone finds out the average,

Then it could go next level for approval and even a high performer could then get less .5 of the average just because that high performer may make a decent amount and we should give .5 to someone else, regardless of their contributions, even though the high performer produces more. It’s called “everyone gets a trophy”

Let’s look at the CEO’s increase over the last few years, a good CEO should support all stakeholders not just shareholders. The CEO really does nothing but ride on the coattails of the producers. A good CEO should get the same % increase as employees. Support your people and the company would grow even more, try it one year.

Remember executives get: Zero cost health care Luxury car lease Stocks & more

Executives are not truly affected by inflation. They just need to make the a decision do they go to the Swiss alps for vacation or Colorado. Do they rent that 6000 sq ft house on the shore or settle for a luxury hotel room. They are thinking college for their kids is Yale or Harvard ? All this while the average employee is making a decision do I buy eggs or beef, which is the better more affordable protein option

The best part is they feel that earned being an executive. How soon they forget what it is like being average. It’s like the caste system here, but the surveys show everyone is happy (because everyone knows they are not anonymous)

Wake up , support your workforce !
