The best is you’ll get updates about senior management going on retreats, hanging out in the box seats at sports games, and record profit growth at the company.
Then they lay you off because one client decided to go with someone else.
I remember my dad talking about a minimum 5% raise plus another on merit in 2000… fuck this place
I mean, from my own experience, my wage has increased 32% in 5-6 years, including those 1.5% merit raises, which is above the overall inflation rate for that period. I’m aware my employer is pretty good in that regard, and we do have a union.
I got a 10% raise this month and still earn like shit.
Where? Let’s get more people employed with your employer, and fewer from the competition.
If you can make more elsewhere then switch jobs. Companies have no loyalty to you, so you shouldn’t have any to them. It’s all financial, so do the best you can for yourself. Companies count on you not wanting to change jobs - don’t play their game.
last year we got a COL adjustment only, company wide, due to he trade situation. I accepted that, it’s better than laying people off. my work output responded in kind, however, after a very high output past year.
the business has had a year to handle the trade situation. this year I am owed my merit raise from the year previous (lol they’re not gonna do fuck all about that) and a merit raise for 2025. let’s see what I get.
You guys get increases?
