The most disrespectful raise of all time

My company hires with the “core value” of constantly growing. In the fine print of this “core value”, they claim that employees are to be subjected to bonus pay, profit sharing, and more.

I don't know that I've ever been so insulted with a “raise”. A measly 6 dollars a week…..
