[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NYC nurses striking claiming it is due to workload and staffing levels. Meanwhile, they're already making $165k and want to increase it up to $275k at some NY hospitals. GMAFB.  That is grotesque overpay for a 4 year degree job.  We are supposed to now compensate nurses more than many family docs?  Talk about wage inflation spiral. If nurses make $275k I guess we have to pay teachers $200k and docs $1M now.

USA wages and cost of labor are out of control. [/quote]

What are your sources for these salaries and what types of roles?

AVERAGE is already $165k. Union is making demands that would push it to $275k.

Ridiculous over compensation. Fire all union nursing and replace. [/quote]

CRNAs there are making $205/hr per diem or 300-350k salary.  That’s more than some physicians make.  That’s an amazing value for a masters degree [/quote]
