Hey everyone, just wanted to give you a heads up that hiring remote workers (largely from the Philippines) to do BOTH skilled and unskilled work is happening on mass scale. These workers work for ~$10000/year and have university level knowledge. You are going to start seeing more and more Ipads with people on the other end in stores and restaurants. If you think for a second that organizations are going to opt for higher wages over remote workers, you are very mistaken. The pandemic has strengthened the ability to outsource jobs as its nearly identical to WFH. The recent increases due to shortages are temporary as this system is being implemented. Went into a store today and saw it with my own eyes for the first time. Just wanted to let everyone know, because this is happening on a MASSIVE scale right now. They have whole organizations that companies simply…
She also let me know she was deeply offended that I went to HR. Wtf.
But you're paying me to act so I will act like I am listening. Switch back every 10 seconds to see if they are yelling still. Then say blah blah blah blah blah. Transfer hang up, or real hold to 'find' the answer to their question. Luckily I need things in writing at my job to take action so blah blah blah.
So I manage a sizable business unit at a publicly traded corporation maybe you've heard of. The last 2 years have been rough. I have amazing immediate bosses in my larger area of the company, and outstanding employees all around. But with The Great Resignation came more work for everyone. Employees temporarily keeping customers happy to fill gaps, and leadership constantly trying to fall on our swords while we take months to recruit and hire new staff. We work in tech, so these are white collar jobs in super high demand. We have a good culture, no one has been asked to return to the office, it's not cutthroat, I approve timesheets and invoices so I know that most people are not working more than 40 hours. I and other managers have really relaxed time off and just let people do what they need to do as long as their…
Posting this on a throwaway account so I don’t accidentally dox myself. So I work for one of my country’s biggest banks as an escalations agent for their call center. I work from home, which is nice, but the position is very stressful as a lot of the calls I’m fielding are from people who are angry and/or desperate. I’m not here for a lecture on how evil the bank is, I already know. Long story short, our workload is about to increase tenfold due to our department being assigned the bulk of the difficult and complex calls that will be coming through from customers of the newly acquired bank. We recently had our annual reviews, and the pay increases offered to top employees in the department were around 3%, and for employees just below that they were less. Now, how is it that you’re expecting us to do significantly…
A young man is at work when his boss pulls up in a beautiful red Ferrari. The boss says to his employee “you see my car over there.” – “Yeah it's amazing” says the employee. The boss puts his hand on his employees shoulder and leans in and says “if you keep working really hard, stay back after hours, and dig deep, I'll be able to afford to upgrade to the latest model next year.”
