Apple retail employees are getting between two and five percent raises this year, which is less than what Apple provided during the pandemic, Bloomberg reports. Annual increases average about four percent, with increases extending to retail and AppleCare support employees.
Salary increases are provided along with employee certification, which is carried out in the fall.
