Classic. The only reward for good work is more work. Then management is surprised people deliver mediocre work and mediocre effort after they don't get a raise (again).
I miss our company being small when hard work was rewarded.
Now we've got over 50 people and more management layers and it's just... I'm not being compensated for that effort anymore, so why bother
life is much better with more personal time and less stress! although I do miss some of the overtime pay. easy decision when we're supposed to be avoiding OT because of the market conditions though
FR.
You don't get rewarded for good, fast, or high impact work anymore.
Why do it at all them?
Just remember that work sets you free.
Work: freeing you from freedom
Management can only do this, if the mentality of a society is, that workers work against each other rather than with each other. The fear that they easily find someone doing your work better or cheaper.
They don’t. Because if they did, they already would have.
And that workers think that they are easy exchangeable, not seeing that onboarding a new guy costs the management efficiency, that what you learn while working makes you more efficient and makes you worth earning more.
