If they want to be a pretend charity they have to pretend to act like one.

Merely acknowledging potential benefits from non-race-to-the-bottom salaries is "pretend charity" now?

They’re only doing what other intelligently managed orgs are: defensive retention via compensation. With the labor force how it is, orgs that prey on precarious workers are in a game of musical chairs. Where do you want to be when the music ends?

The owner of IKEA is a dutch foundation. That's not the same as a charity. Still, IKEA's ownership structure is questionable and occasionally flares up as a matter of interest in the media.
