The short answer is no better no worse. but based on close interaction with clients, the longer answer is depends on where you live and the business you are in. Basically the rich are getting richer ( financial, real estate and cooperate) and the poorer are staying poorer.

In our area it is mostly service industry, wages are flat even though un employment is low.

Everyone, including us, seems to be working harder just to stay even

In health care the booming industries are elder health services, big growth there. Big wealth for the owners, hard work and flat wages for the workers
