The bank says in an internal memo from CEO Victor Dodig that it will be increasing by three per cent the base salary for the first six levels of employees starting in July.
It says it will also boost its minimum entry wage to $20 an hour from $17, both in Canada and the U.S. in local currency, and has committed to further raising it to $25 by 2025. Dodig says in the memo that the increase in pay will "further support our team's financial wellbeing, help us attract and retain talent, and build on our reputation as an employer of choice."

CIBC raising garbage wages to the low end in a hyper inflationary market. Meaning the CIBC employee will continue to be earn slave wages in Canada’s dire economic reality. There isn’t anything to brag about and if Victor Dodig had anything to brag about he would pay 150% more.
