    99.5% (with 93% of eligible employees voting) is a stunning number. But also one that tragically highlights how bad it has gotten. It’s very hard to get so many people to agree on much these days. But they virtually all agree that the pay is too damn low.

      In the second quarter of 2023, the company reported profits of $1.34 billion, with revenue rising to a quarterly record for the company of $14 billion.

      It hasn’t gotten that bad for everyone. What a broken system.

        So AA has ~130,000 employees so at $1.34B that’s about $10,000/employee. Seems like they got plenty in the old war chest to be giving out raises left and right so surely that’s what they’re doing, right?
