The usual. No raises for the men and women in the trenches providing day to day services. Not even a COLA. Those at the top, Cha Ching.
If the governor would stop giving IEDC dollars away that private companies should give then our State employees would get raises. Stop complaining about shortages and fix the waste in government.
Amazing how the outgoing Governor is the one issuing the statement and not the loser taking office. Should have just said bend over.
Robert, you call the one who gained the vast majority of Hoosier votes a “loser?” Is it just your fellow citizens you hate or is it all of democracy?
I guess this is another way to shrink the state payroll as people bail and departments become non-functional. This brings to mind CPS.
What a gut punch. I genuinely feel terrible for them and their families.
As a state employee I felt shocked and thought it was a typo when I got the email. Then I remembered reading about the massive pay raises for statewide elected officials and said yep, that make sense.
Former state employee here–it’s been this way for a long time (my experience is from the late-1980s to the first five years of the 21st century). Merit raises were practically unheard of as well. Usually the only way to get ahead was to find another state position which was classified at a higher designation, or leave State employ completely. The State also worked people above their official position requirements–I supervised 8–12 professionals, but never got the designation of “Supervisory and Management” (and the money that went with it). Just the responsibility.
The governor (and it made no difference which governor, or which party) always issued a statement saying how he was proud of, and how much he appreciated, the efforts of state workers. That always rang hollow.
