Pros
Assuming more money for the higher-ups.
Cons
Less money for those under the higher-ups or management, especially when employees get paid between $15 to $18 an hour, with zero opportunities for an annual wage increase. I am beyond frustrated and angry at the decision to cut our bonuses from 10% to 5%, especially so close to the holidays. It's hard enough for employees like me, making $15 to $18 an hour, to cover our basic expenses, and now we're being told that the bonus we've been relying on will be slashed by half. To add insult to injury, this company recently asked us to donate to fund a non-profit *created by the company*—essentially asking its own underpaid workers to fund an initiative they should be taking responsibility for. It feels like a slap in the face. It’s clear where the money is going—towards the higher-ups. It’s the working people who make this company run, but we’re the ones who take the hit every time. There’s no annual increase in wages, and now, no meaningful bonus payout either. How are we supposed to stay motivated or loyal to a company that seems to care so little about?
