US workers more glum on compensation and work prospects, New York Fed says
U.S. workers are growing more sour with their employment compensation, according to a survey released on Monday by the New York Federal Reserve. In its Survey of Consumer Expectations Labor Market Survey for July, the regional Fed bank said that as of last month, "satisfaction with wage compensation as well as with non-wage benefits and promotion opportunities at respondents' current jobs all deteriorated." As of July, 56.7% of respondents said they were satisfied with their pay compared to 59.9% who held the similar view in July 2023.
