Home Depot is Handing out Raises to Employees As Business Booms

Home Depot has been doing big business during the pandemic – and now they’re sharing some of that boom with employees.

The company reported a 24% increase in sales last quarter, as people focus on home improvement projects during the pandemic.

Now the company is handing out $1 billion in pay increases for hourly workers – turning temporary pandemic bonuses into a permanent pay raise.
