    Technically, yes. However there are circumstances some places in the lower brackets where making more can disqualify you from welfare benefits. In those circumstances, an increase which is too small to compensate for the loss of benefits would be, effectively, a net loss.

    Obviously though, that’s not really an issue at the 400k bracket.

      And that’s a big thing in France I think. I heard many talks about how it’s better to be on SMIC (minimum salary) so you get all the benefits, and that for it to be worth it you need to bump up quite a bit higher in salary. I don’t have any numbers to show or anything though so take it with a grain of salt.
