How Money Works did a video on quiet quitting (e.g. doing your job and not a jot more) and how companies did that to themselves.
Rather than promoting from within, companies started hiring outsiders who didn't need training in the software and duties of the new position, saving them the cost of training (or rather passing the cost on to the workers.)
(This is where my wife interjects an observation from her own job in admin, incuding HR, that the hired stranger will still have to be frontloaded with all the company specific protocols, like who signs your work logs, where you eat lunch, where the printers are in the LAN, what accountant orders more supplies and so on, and this process often takes longer than training)
Anyway, workers quickly learned rather than asking for a raise, they keep their résumé current and keep applying for higher paying jobs, and the moment they land one pull up stakes and leave, owing no loyalty to the old company.
And since working hard and sucking up to the managers doesn't make a difference for promotions or raises, people bring their bare minimum effort to work. Doubly so since hiring from ouside pays on average three times what promotional salaries are.
If they're not paying you what you are worth, keep light on your feet and look at competing companies. Heck if your workplace is toxic, secure whatever intel you can while you search for jobs.
Yep, social contract has two sides. Millennials never saw the "generosity" that Boomers- and to a lesser extent GenX- experienced through the 70s-80s-90s, as the entire landscape began shifting in the early 2000s as "globalism" meant cheaper labor for capitalists, along with depressed wages for domestic workers.
Employees don't owe their employers anything beyond their contracted work, because doing more has never amounted to anything other than more workload.
I hope she got out of HR before she was corrupted
Why is this screenshot moldy
Is this better for you?
He'll be laid off in 2 weeks for asking for a raise, as workers should be there for the love of their job and not the paycheck, per the capitalist owner who would drown a bus full of orphans if it lowered their tax bill.
We once had a remote town hall meeting for our department, and the VP had asked everyone if they had any questions about anything. My close coworker had asked about raises and a few other things since it was the start of not getting yearly raises anymore. The VP answered appropriately (not give any answers and change the subject). Later that day my coworker told us he was pulled into his bosses office and questioned about why he did that and if he was trying to put our VP in an uncomfortable position. So the ask any questions part was just a formality, and I guess not to be taken seriously...
That’s why these VPs get paid the big bucks: to (not) answer the tough question and get their fee fees hurt.
What the fuck is a fee fee?
Feelings
Feelings. Use context.
Making a contract with a person to do a job A and forcing him to do A+B without compensation is exploitation and breach of contract. Making a person do A+B without compensation, making him think it's his idea and making him feel good and accomplished is a brilliant piece of managership.
making him think it’s his idea,
i thought that's gaslighting?
"If you work hard and always give 110%, you might some be a big successful manager with a huge income."
No, its dangling a carrot.

BWAAAAAAHP
minimum wage keeps people "hungry" and working for more, something better all their lives. same way you train dogs, start with kibble as treats, so they're always looking for higher value treats as "rewards", easier to train and control.
my dog gets duck wrapped sweet potatoes, much harder to train this way, but I feel good giving her better treats. and she loves them
But here's a pizza party for the crew! Be sure to only have one slice so there's enough to go around.
I hated that line so much, I wanted to pinch her thru the screen. He can have a slice and also pass.
Never let some fat lady insinuate you're greedy.

I assume he's not talking about mesothelioma then.
Because if you or a loved one have been diagnosed with mesothelioma, you may be entitled to financial compensation.
We appreciate you in ways that can't be measured by financial compensation.
So a very big raise?
The thing they appreciate most is how cheaply you did it all for
priceless
