If you're not personifying corporations, I just don't understand who's supposed to be "unhappy" when a worker gets a raise.
The person in payroll? It doesn't actually make them unhappy to put higher numbers on a check.
Someone in management who sets budgets? Working with economic constraints is their job. People I know in this role are happy when they're able to give raises, because their employees are happy.
The shareholders? Cry me a goddamn river.
Of course there are people who are passionate about their work at large corporations, but you can't tell me that the large corporation is what they would choose if they could do anything they wanted with their life and money was no object.
