Who Is Quitting and Why?
from Ask The Compound · host The Compound
"Instead of gradually raising the minimum wage over time nationally, first to $10, then $12, and putting it on a path towards $15, we have seen the pressure build for years . . . then during the pandemic lockdown, we experienced an 18 month period when low-wage workers reconsidered their careers. The dam broke, the results being both a sudden spike in wages and a shortage of workers." - Barry Ritholtz For more visit: The Big Picture For disclosure information please visit: https://ritholtzwealth.com/blog-disclosures/ Hosted on Acast.
