The company I worked for has been hovering around $15M-USD year on year leading up to the pandemic. Ever since Covid they have been taking in $30M-USD+ for the last 2 years so thats $60M double their revenue. Alot of the good employees have left to find something else, but I realised one thing. Ever since the pandemic I have not received a single pay rise, even inflation is 7.5%+ or even worse double digits. All I ever get is words, that we are valuable employees and a essential to the business, management thanks us for our efforts blah blah blah etc… Every pay-check that I look at makes me depressed seeing it being fixed while housing has gone up 30%+ and the cost of living is just ever more expensive 10%+… I'm thinking of leaving my job and just live on government benefits instead. Perhaps file for mental illness because I'm fucking drained and exhausted.
