Is Visa a stingy company?
I recently joined Allstate india and my manager is forcing me to come to office twice a week. During negotiations, I had made it clear that I didn't want to work from office due to personal commitment.
Please suggest:
1. Is my understanding correct that Allstate india is currently not forcing employees to come to office and my manager is an exception?
2. How can I say no without pissing off the manager given I have just joined the company?

CoL raises are mythical at most HoCo agencies. Add that to the multi-year gaps between performance raises and you’re actually doing better than many of us.
This. Same for bonuses for peons. (I once got $500 for new years at Publicis.)
No pay raise in 3 years — including zero COLA. 🤡
CoL raises are frustrating, but pretty standard
Lol I’ve gotten nothing the past two years despite getting the highest rating for my performance reviews.
