Last job I had said “Top performers earn $$$ (insert ridiculous amount of money), and can earn ($$$$) in their 2nd year!”
Bare mind I’m still relatively young and new to the business world so I can afford to get swindled like this, as I did at my previous job.
However, when I see people who have families, more responsibilities and higher pressure to succeed at a job, come in because they’ve been LIED to about how much they’re “pretty much guaranteed” to make? That kind of shit makes me infuriated.
So many people get duped into working jobs that are not even remotely close to their description/pay. All of this so recruiters can hit a quota and so people already working there can have some new blood to bully.
The resulting punishment of lying to people in order to get them to accept a job?
Absolutely nothing.
Fuck corporate Americas power imbalance, employers are basically at the rate of lying to fuck people over so they can make their Q2 earnings.
I really wish things were different.
