Benchmarks: Hewitt Associates 2009/2010 U.S. Salary Increase Survey

摘要

Salary increase budgets. The economic downturn prompted U.S. companies to grant employees the lowest base salary increases in 33 years in 2009. Base salary increases dropped below 3 percent for the first time since Hewitt started tracking the data in 1976. Past economic downturns did not lead to such dismal salary increases as there were in 2009, according to Hewitt.
