My team hired a lot of new people recently and during our last meeting we were told that a position for team lead/ manager was just opened (much higher pay, better equity, more benefits) but we'd have to “fight for it”. They said that people who “show more dedication” towards their job (working extra hours, staying late, taking calls after hours etc) will have a much higher chance of being promoted. Is this legal?? A classic divide and conquer tactic?
