That said, my coworkers with less experience were also hit with frozen salaries (even if you get a promotion!), eliminated 401k match, bonuses at half of previous years. So the folks in the first 10 years of their career also saw a hit this year.[/quote]
I don’t disagree that even people in the first 10 years of their career got their salaries freezes. But this is one of the worse recession in a long while, so, that should be expected. However, everything seems to get cheaper too, so inflation didn’t really hit over the last year.

We’re finally starting to see eye-to-eye! 😉
