What an insult! A very close relative works for one of the largest healthcare insurance companies, notorious for its care and referral denials and its outstanding positive bottom line; yesterday this person got a performance review and a $.13/salary increase; my math says that's $270.40/year (based on the planned 2080 workhours). WHAT AN INSULT. How does one compliment an employee and then say "your salary increase will be $.13/hour?" And we wonder why people are unhappy with jobs. Thoughts?

sure does, doesnt it? feels the same for a lot of people

I work for a payer, not the one you are referencing but we got $0 increase across the board and our bonuses, which are tied to company performance, were inexplicably reduced by 50% from the metrics in our compensation plan.

like

that’s rough. $0 across the board and bonuses slashed 50% from what the plan literally spelled out? That’s feels like a straight up bait and switch.

Happening more and more lately. Companies are having record-breaking profits, but none of that benefits the employees. Making everyone ask why they work so hard when there’s no reward in it.

like

Yeah, it's straight-up demoralizing watching the numbers roll in; record profits, stock buybacks hitting all-time highs, execs cashing out massive bonuses and then you look at your paycheck and it's basically the same as last year, maybe a 2-3% "raise" if you're lucky. Feels like the company's success is happening despite the people doing the actual work, not because of them.

That’s shocking! It really shows how little they value their employees. Unbelievable!

Yeah, it’s shocking when they do stuff like that. It’s disrespectful. No wonder morale tanks in places like that.
