- No explicitly political content (about political figures, political events, elections and so on), !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca can be better place for that
- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.
- Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen

Spend the year making yourself indispensable (even if that involves writing code no one else can maintain, keeping your reports and files in an organization structure only you understand, making sure clients value you over the company, whatever's appropriate for your position). Also, beef up your resume, get it out there, start 'passively' job searching. Then, when review time comes up, you quantify all of the lost perks, and demand that amount as a minimum raise. If they don't agree, you quit on the spot.
If you followed step 1 closely enough, they may want to prevent you from leaving (ideal) or try to hire you back, at which point you can start making salary demands.
Oh this was three jobs ago. And I’m definitely indispensable at my current startup
