Is it crazy that jobs will lay you off for over achieving but keep people whose metrics didn’t match yours 🥴 I’m still shocked that I got laid off while others who didn’t have my numbers still have a job.

Disclaimer: never late, never missed a day, performance over 120% last 6 months, always helped others and always positive… AMAZING referral letters given….

Are you paid more than the people who were not laid off?

Yes and no.. I make more in commission yes. The hourly was the same. But I only make more bc I produced more.

I'm drowning in one-off business logic or planning requests ever since the last shuffle of devs. I'm the most senior, and def know the most, but on a team where our devs wear many hats, it means that I don't get to code nearly as much as I want to.

I also feel like these one-off requests do nothing for my career, as they're not seen as valuable to anyone other than the requesters.

Has anyone been in this position? What do I do to combat this?

Physician Assistant salaries in the Chicago Area? I’ve practiced at an AMC for 5.5 years and make around 116k salary.

Another AMC offered me 124k 9 months ago for a similar role - which I turned down due to some red flags during interviews. Recently got a 10k retention bonus when I voiced my intent to leave but still feel underpaid as I’m literally keeping my practice afloat.
