Salary growth has slowed to its lowest pace in recent years, reflecting cautious spending and tighter global HR budgets, according to the 2025 Talentnet–Mercer Total Remuneration Survey.
Salaries increased by 6.5 per cent this year at multinational companies and 5.2 per cent at Vietnamese companies, and are forecast to increase by 7 per cent and 7.7 per cent next year.
