A Company That Did Something Right

Sometimes we need an uplifting story here about a company that actually tries to do well by their employees. I worked somewhere that was not doing well financially. It was 'end-of-year/raises' time. The executives decided: Executives did not receive bonuses High earners did not receive raises Mid earners received 2% raises Lower earners received 4% raises There were no layoffs or staff reductions. Was it great? Not really. Was it good? I think so. Executives took what money they could and used it for the benefit of those who could use it more. This was a large company made up mostly of the mid and lower tiers so it had a real impact in the workplace.
