The Math is not Mathing - Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) Mercy Health Employee Review

Raise don’t keep up with inflation. You are lucky to get a .37% of of your current hourly pay, inflation is around 3% right now and raises should reflect that, but they don’t. So if your wage is $15 your raise should be about $0.45 give or take a few cents. Imagine your manager tells you you are getting a $0.06 raise for all your hard work, knowing that it is not even a 1% raise ( it’s around 0.4%), it’s utterly disappointing. What can you pay with that? 1-2 bills? Or none because taxes suck it all up.
