I'm sure the company can figure out retroactive raises year-by-year. So, why not inflationary-ish numbers from 2020, 21 and 22, THEN start with the new numbers.
1.4 for 2020, 7 for 2021 then 9 for 2022 and get 1 check encompassing all prior years.
The 20% day 1 crowd that implies it should be 20% from 2020 is out of touch with reality.
Out of touch with reality is thinking inflation between 2021 2022 was only 16%
Name one thing that's only up 16% since 2020? Most things are 2x that.
