I stayed loyal through years of chaos and budget cuts, and now I am watching new hires walk in with salaries uncomfortably close to what I'm making. I am happy for them but it feels like a punch in the gut. Why aren't companies giving raises based on tenure?

Simply because they don't have to. What recourse do you - or any of us - have right now? Job hopping isn't anywhere near as easy as it was a few years ago. People are clinging to jobs, low pay and all, because there just aren't a lot of better options available. You could make the argument that that should result in lower starting salaries for new hires too, but that's just not the way it works and I'm not going to begrudge the new hires for it.

Yes, it’s the way it works however it shouldn’t work this way. People shouldn’t have to suffer and struggle because they aren’t paid like others or increased appropriately based on performance and certainly shouldn’t be making less than a new comer.

They are willing to let a good employee walk obviously. 🙄 they hire new people and they walk within weeks.

Loyalty is never rewarded in the workplace

Hi ladies, I'm in my mid 40s and I think I'm entering peri. I currently have a Mirena but I should replace it again soon, but one more will put me into my 50s(!!) and I was wondering if anyone here knows that they're in peri or menopause without having periods. Is there blood work or something to check? I definitely do not want to have another child accidentally. I've got 5 more years until my youngest is in college and don't want to start over again.

How does your agency use data? Is it only used for tracking and reporting? Is it used for setting strategy and informing creative? For business consulting? Thanks!

Prayerfully, this transition will be a good one.

Thoughts on leaving PA primarily due to the metrics based culture (utilization, dtc, use of X digital tool, revenue, margin, etc).
