It’s businessinsider. The answer is always “no”

They found a post on an anonymous forum complaining and made an article about it because it fits their narrative that workers are being paid too much

They even misspelled “job” in the middle of the article they spent so little time proofreading or fact checking

Edit: The only interesting lines in the article

could get $170,000 in pay and benefits in five years' time

The agreement has yet to be officially approved
