Taiwanese company Evergreen reported a 1300% year-over-year jump in net profits in the first three quarters of 2021.
A couple who have worked at Evergreen for more than a decade said they received a combined $180,100 in year-end bonuses. They each earned a basic salary of $2,100 a month, so the bonus works out to about 42 months in monthly wages.
Evergreen attribute the insane revenue growth to rising freight costs. But another freight company "Maersk" only gave their employees $1,000 bonus (taken from same article).
Maybe it wasn't the freight, just the blockage of the canal to cover up the missing sub or some war action.
