I’ve worked for a corporate office these last few years alongside HR & recruitment and here’s what I can tell you:

If it’s a corporate company (given that your degree/experience is in the field you applied for), they CAN afford to pay you a higher wage (if their revenues are increasing on the right trajectory), but your list of tasks/responsibilities will also be higher given that you can meet your performance goals. If they are short-staffed & are being very picky with the hiring, it means that they’ve had a high turnover rate in the past, and are looking for people who are going to take the job seriously/be in it for the long haul.

If it’s a small business, inflation is the main culprit. If they don’t have enough revenues coming in to take care of all their expenses & liabilities, they’ll have to cut employees or their wages & increase the prices on their goods in order to use that money towards their expenditures.

Even jobs that pay well, have employees who dgaf about the job itself. So they end up spending more money, time and resources to train people, all for employees to STILL perform low or look at other jobs that pay roughly the same or more..For a business, people like that are a liability. I’ve seen it firsthand several times with the younger generation in the workforce right now, they’re not burnt out, they’re legit lazy vs people in our generation or older, if we’re hard workers they tend to exploit that…so it’s not always the business laying people off just because…the main factors are: is the business making money or losing money? Do they have proper training protocols in place to ensure employees have the resources they need? Are they hiring qualified people or do they have a high turnover rate? All of these factors determine whether or not the business is equipped to hire or pay workers more than a livable wage...Hopefully this brings a little more insight and that you’re able to find a good job that pays you well!
