There was one guy who offered to decline his raise so others wouldn't be let go but was told that it wasn't his choice and he could take the raise or lose his job.

A few things...yes I would take the cut and then start my job search. I would also make sure that it is across the board including management and that they would not be getting any bonuses or car allowance, blah blah.

No increase for me this year...not sure when I will see an increase again, there might be layoffs here in the near future. Supposedly my group is safe for now, maybe Obama will save us all.
