It’s been 10 years since I took a million dollar pay cut to pay all staff at Gravity Payments a $70,000 minimum wage. People have wondered: How did it go?
We conducted a comprehensive study of everything that has happened since our 2015 announcement.
We are proof that paying living wages is good for both employees and businesses.
Since raising wages, our revenue and profits have soared, employees have started families while continuing to provide excellent customer service, and clients have become happier and stayed longer.
It worked so well that we raised the minimum to $80,000 and added an employee profit-sharing program.
Yet outside our company, it made no impact: no businesses followed suit, and the pay gap between workers and CEOs remains massive.

things are meant to be used. paint is meant to stain, perfumes are meant to be sprayed, candles are meant to be burned, clothes are meant to be worn. stop waiting for a good day to use things. use things to have a good day.

@IamGabrielLuna has been excellent in everything I’ve seen him in (Last of Us as Tommy is no exception) and I (for one) think he’d make an amazing Elzar Mann.
I want to see poverty abolished. I want people to work one job and live comfortably. I want people to have clean air, food & water.
These aren’t lofty goals, these are basic human rights.
Grandma: I checked your book out from the library, but I wrinkled it a little bit before I returned it, so people would know it's popular.
I'm retiring from marketing. Grandma is taking over.
