One of the problems with corporations is they get too big for their britches when they're having success. They starting hiring all kinds of people, a lot of the time less-deserving folks. Then when the business doesn't do as well, they have to make cuts, and that affects the solid employees as well, which is some bullhooey.

I wouldn't stick around somewhere for too long if the company couldn't even muster a 2% cost of living raise.
