I was brought on as an IC instead of employee.Told company that I was raising my rates from $500/ mo to $700 (this is in SF, $700 is basically 1 dinner). Someone on the board blocks my pay increase because my job description and responsibilities are “light” and asks for a performance review.

I'm not entirely sure what I'm looking for hopefully some guidance and advice ..but I'm super conflicted I have a decent job, it's in the marijuana industry I'm making 19.00 an hour as a department head. I like the work I do with the people I do it with.

So I got laid off last week. Sucks but i work in tech and have a few final round interviews next week. The part that blows my mind is that I was promised that they would continue to cover my healthcare for October. Until 4:30 today when I got an email from our HR director saying hey lol turns out we aren’t doing that have fun bud. No reason why, literally last damn minute on a Friday. I’m not eligible for Cobra as I needed another 5 days for that. Which honestly this whole thing is incredible. Forgive the formatting I’m on mobile.
