A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.

Holy fuck, I have no idea what they were on before but 31% is monumental! Good for them :)

...over 3 years. From 19 to 25 if my math is correct.

Quicker, actually. No one ever reads the damned articles. It jumps to $24 straight away, and then $26 in 2026.

Thanks for sharing real numbers. A 31% increase from $1 an hour would be just $1.31 an hour.
