Again, my point is that all promotions should come with a wage adjustment. Believe it or not, but promotions aren't always into management. Even if they were, a good manager knows what it takes to do the job and is therefore worth getting paid more to utilize that experience in a management role.

I simply don’t think “climbing rigid corporate structures for more money” is compatible with a worker focused economy. It’s fine for a deeply capitalist outlook on things

If we're talking about work being structured in a cooperative fashion, then yes I'd agree. But until we as workers own the means of production, we need to fight for fair compensation in all jobs. This includes fighting for raises when you're promoted.

What if you were being compensated well before you were promoted?
