I would like to know a few useful salary ranges. 30% of what?
There is a trend of doing no increases for years and crowing about being responsible. When an increase is needed then badmouthing the large percentage increase. Responsible would have been to increase every year by at least inflation.
The timeframe is more important for these numbers. 30% over 3 years is pretty good, 30% over 6 years is just ok.
Great point.
If a business (such as this) was a poor person (in terms of debt and investments) and that person was your friend, you would have an intervention. You would be very concerned with their terrible money management. Why don't you take care of your fuckin car Dennis?
Because it's a business making these decisions it's seen as risk vs reward with all the risk being on those who get the least reward. Neglect your equipment but still make earnings? Bravo. Run to fail as a business model because short term gains are literally orgasms? Bold, innovative and goal driven.
It's a sickness and it's going to destroy us.
