This is just an angry rant on my end.
I left my job at a big company due to almost 7 years of promises that were never fulfilled. I started out making 38k while the person I managed made almost 60k, and left after almost 7 years at 92k, 30k under other people who did what I did.
I ended up joining a company as a lead developer handling one of their main projects. After 60 hour work weeks for a year, 15 pounds of stress weight gained, me going without pay for a month, and losing almost 50k for this company, we finally sold our company. The higher up kept on telling my that I would make 2 years worth of pay, ontop of a 30k increase in pay a year due to me taking a pay decrease with the company.
I found out today that not only am I not getting a pay increase, but I only received a tenth of what was promised in the sale. I reached out several times confused and was left on read for all my emails and messages. But hey my boss is a millionaire now so I guess that's good for them.
Feel like I waisted so much time being gaslite by people I thought were my friends.
