Are you holding Emirates responsible for the state of the dollar?
In any event 12 weeks equates to just under a quarter of your yearly salary. Has the US dollar devalued 25% over 12months and if so, against which currencies?
The bonus is not a distraction. It is what it is and, according to my quick maths, is actually fairly close to expected based on the target. The pay rise will be what they feel is justified and required for future expansion. If they can get enough new guys from the US, the falling dollar will not be an issue.
