MLB umpires draw salaries ranging from a minimum of $87,000 to upwards of $250,000 (per the Biz of Baseball website). Minor league umpires, many whom have worked as much as many as 154 MLB games in one season, receive a pro-rata share of the minimum MLB salary. Minor league salaries are monthly, with a maximum of $3,500 per month.
According to mlb.com: "Professional umpires currently begin their Minor League career at $1,800 per month. At the Major League level, salaries range from approximately $84,000 to $300,000 per year."
It's a "unionized" job (the longer your tenure, the more you qualify for as a base salary with performance evaluation pay increases and special game participation - e.g., all-star game, play-offs and World Series - bonuses) and per their last negotiated contract, I believe that a "rookie" umpire makes the same as the lowest paid professional ballplayer on a 40-member MLB contract which is somewhere now in the range for $400-$500K/season. A friend of mine is a 36-year tenured MLB umpire who hired on in 1976 when he then made $30K/season.

When did mlb umpires last announce a change in the called strike zone?
Umpires do not decide or announce changes in the strike zone, that is determined by the MLB Rules Committee. The last such change by the committee was in 1996, when the lower limit of the strike zone was changed from the top of the knees to the bottom of the knees. Umpires simply call the strike zone on what THEY PERCEIVE as the size of the zone in the rules in effect at the time.
