Pay rise? Thanks, but no thanks
Pay rise or letter of thanks?
More than a third of women would rather have a thank you from their boss than a pay rise, according to recent research.
A survey of more than 1,000 women showed that 38% felt that having their efforts recognised at work would make their working life better, compared to 15% who said a pay rise would do the same. Researchers found the importance of the simple things in life also carried over into the home, with 61% saying gestures like being made a cup of tea or breakfast in bed would improve their relationships. Only 2% said they would rather receive an expensive gift.
