By skyforbes Then my manager sends an email two hours later saying annual reviews are coming up but we've been instructed that nobody is getting more than a 2% raise due to "budget constraints" and "economic uncertainty." That doesn't even cover inflation.
Meanwhile I just found out our VP of Operations got a new company car last month. A Tesla. But sure, there's no money for the people actually doing the work.
I've been here 4 years and I'm making basically the same as when I started after you account for cost of living. My rent went up 15% this year alone. But hey at least the shareholders are happy right?
The disconnect is insane. They really stood up there bragging about record profits and expected us to just smile and accept poverty wages. I'm so done pretending to be grateful for scraps.
