What is minimum wage now $7.50 an hour? I thought I saw something where if I company had under X amount of employees they could pay them under minimum wage. Just wondering here since my wife just started working and its' under $7.50. The company said they would give her a raise in 90 days or after her grace period or some shit. Or.. is all companes regardless of size required to pay at least minimum wage?
