My annual review was a couple weeks ago and guess what my raise was? Only 3%. Are you kidding me? I got a pay cut for working my ass off?! I am pissed and at a loss. What they said was oh but you do get bonuses and benefits so it’s okay.

Everyone there freaking gets these too! So I’ve been working on my resume and casually searching for jobs. I’m worried though that I do not have enough experience that no one will want to hire me.

I guess moral of the story, no matter how nice your boss may be, the company only cares about their own interests. Don’t waste your time somewhere that has a strict 3% only raise unless there is a CEO review -_-
