What about that 10% raise the whole company got?

Amazing how often this one-time across-the-board salary raise is being trotted out in defense of other cuts elsewhere. What a great PR move that was.

Besides, I would imagine that in a company doing as well as Google, annual raises of this amount were usual for the performers anyway.

Sounded like it was a raise on top of whatever else they got. I'd take that kind of raise for fewer perks. They could have just as easily not given it.

Everybody forgot about it.

Yea, I guess they won't be doing that again, for all it got 'em.

the 10% raise was 5 years after the perks started dissapearing....
