"we are compensated 40% lower than current industry standard."
Why would you take a job that pays 40% less than industry standard? I'm guessing it's because no one else would hire you. I understand your desire for more pay, but this kind of reminds me of the girl who marries a dude with severe flaws but thinks "well, I'll just have to change him after we're married". I wish you well with your effort to increase your pay. The market forces should help you. But to complain about your pay when no one put a gun to your head to take the job seems a bit incredulous.

Perhaps you should ask some of the guys that took jobs with Fred in the early years. Somebody had to put the time in to get wages to what they are today.

A not uncommon way for UPS Managers to learn somebody had quit was to find their UPS issued kitbag with manuals left in the Flight Ops hallway in the morning. Many quit without having another job lined up.

I see the same thing happening at Amazon. They'll lease a fleet of 767s until they can sustain their own operation, then Atlas gets the boot again.
Amazon leases run until 2023. Amazon has exercised ZERO warrants. But they dropped $13.8 BILLION on Whole Foods outta the clear blue sky, but not a DIME on Atlas.
