A newly hired manager, +10 yrs exp, was RIF'd. He/she confided, they felt that there was a group of auditors that have an unconscious bias as they greatly assist each and exclude others. The mgr said it was a steep learning curve & had they been a part of that group they too would have a lesser learning curve & higher success rate - i.e. access certain forms or utilizing internal tools. Ironically the mgr is of the ilk yet not from the exact country.

Hey Bowl,
I work for a late stage(ipo) start up, earlier this year we were acquired & since then they got rid of our yearly bonuses and gave us an ESOP grant.
2 RIFs later we are almost bare bones. Since we are coming up on our usual yearly evaluations many of us assumed (with multiple conversation from our managers) that pay raises and promotions were due.
In a recent All hands we found out that this year there will be no pay raises nor promotions based off merit. Is it time to jump ship?
