I just fucking told you. Are you reading anything? Our starting wages were anywhere from $13-20 depending on the position and skill. This year we raised that starting wage to $15-25 depending on those same positions and skills. They are not union. Our average wage for production employees is $30 an hour. We are in the process of giving most of our 400 employees anywhere from a $1-3 raise depending on performance. We put our money where our mouths are not only because we care about our culture but because we HAVE to in this economy. Hence, why tax cuts and the policies of this admin and the last are raising wages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The company wants to grow. To do so we need labor. Labor pool is tight due to the economy. The only way to attract is to pay more. Hence rising wages in this market. Not out of the norm for manufacturing right now. Believe what you want, but some of us live it not just have to make a judgement on whether or not we find it “believable”.

Those folks will go somewhere else if they aren’t getting paid by you. That’s a fact. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snoslinger Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 poor ben posts an article he likely didn't read, touting national wage increases of 2.8%. then fellow trumpsters come in and say they're seeing 15% +, like it's happening everywhere....

And while the average American paycheck had risen over the past 30 years, its happiness-boosting benefits were more than offset by a drop in the quality of relationships over the period.

XC.Morrison Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 (edited) So if wages are rising at 2.8% and inflation is at 2.9% as of the end of June - do people have more or less purchasing power?
