Kontras
There is no recognition of upstanding performance other than a pat on the back. Worked for a little over three years between 2020 and 2023 and received one 2% pay raise in 2020 as a “standard of living adjustment,” which the company commended itself for “going above and beyond” since inflation was technically 0% that year. Okay, so they set that standard right? Wrong. No raise the following two years despite the sky high inflation. All in all, wages for my classification rose by 30% while my wages remained stagnant. Now I do understand I’m not entitled to raises as they should be earned through hard work and dedication. Well, year one was an exceptional year with stellar review by my manager that was capped off with successfully obtaining my PE License which greatly boosts my production potential for the company. Unfortunately, even that was not enough to make the case for a raise. By year three the gap between my earnings and the cost of living was so wide that I felt deflated and gave up on the company that gave up on me long before. I was literally moving back in life with the way the cost of everything was soaring. My purchasing power fell by 25% on my last day compared to my first day despite 3 years of service and worthy achievements.
