Hey fortune 500 guy post your salary and let us compare it to the salary of the township emplyees.


Yeah, really. It must be nice working for a "Fortune 500" company. I am proud to say that I worked for 2 in the past and I know for a fact that the annual percentage increases were based on merit only and they were better than what I'm hearing Twp employees get (here and in other towns)

Hey guys, this is getting rather far afield. If you want to debate municipal versus public employees how about starting a new thread.

Furthermore, I work for a "non" Fortune 500 now and can say that they take good care of our employees. I personally know someone who works for a municipality and it is not as "pretty" as some of you assume it is.


Please quote the post where anyone here implied that the municipal employees had it "pretty." I haven't seen that.

Good for you. That doesn't make it standard at all Fortune 500 companies or private companies in general.

Um, the previous remark where the person indicated that township employees are "paid handsomely". I'm just not seeing it how they or any of us are qualified to make remarks about something which we do not know for a fact.....unless we know of people who work for municipalities.

If one takes a moment and searches New Jersey by the Numbers and enters Cranbury you will see just how hansomely the employees of Cranbury are compensated not including benefits. You should look at the fat pensions for some of those retired public works folks and past police dept. employees that are now working on their second pension. Another site worth taking a look at is New Jersey Multiple Job Holders-- take a look at our double dipping tax assessor who -by the way lives in Pa. I cannot shed one tear for the way we compensate our employees.

Sorry I guess I missed something, who was shedding tears for employees? This thread was about whether town hall should close early on holiday weekends. It has devolved into petty bitching about public employees. Start a petty bitching thread.

Our tax assessor is great if you knew anything you know that 1) he's saved the town a lot of money managing our decreased values and 2) to have someone of his caliber as just a Cranbury employee would be a lot more expensive.

Also, figures you reference are wrong. That was stated by our own TC at budget time.
