I do not plan on going anywhere regardless of how much the airlines are paying, but would like to get some extra $$ out of the horse before she's put out to pasture in the event of another recession. That being said, we do an annual compensation analysis that gives us a fairly predictable raise every year, I'm just curious at how other fortune 100 companies are approaching this to get those 40k bumps that were previously mentioned.
In the case i referenced, it was partly (as others pointed out) the cost of losing people and sending new people to type training - basically becoming a rating factory. That company is now valuing their people and kind of kicking the NBAA salary numbers to the curb in exchange for having happy pilots for the long term.
