Is that good or bad?
From my perspective it was very good. Considering my position I was already at the top of the wage heap, but when the wages go up $2/hr on the bottom rungs they also end up going up a little a few rungs up.
My employer was having a dificult time finding good people at $12/hr and had to raise the starting wage to $14 about a year ago.
Is that good or bad?
