The e-commerce giant is increasing its wage floor by $1 for full-time operations employees, according to a report by CNBC.

The wage increase is expected to cost Amazon more than $1.5 billion, a fraction of the company's market value, according to TechCrunch.

The company says average hourly pay now stands at $24, matching a wage level similar to Costco's, alongside a new grocery discount benefit.
Government forecast included in draft state budget documents estimates wage growth over the coming years, according to Ukrinform.
Wage growth is struggling to keep pace with inflation, though evidence of AI's impact remains incomplete, according to CNBC.
