Well gently caress, you’re right. He is a motherfucking capitalist. And I defended his body of work in the capitalism thread of all places. When I get back to my shrine to Carl Marx I’ll say 10 hail Satan’s and whip myself with the communist manifesto until I pass out. Sorry for the disturbance I have caused and sorry I questioned your intentions. Hail Satan Ps big nips.com. Book it. Going to be a hit all around the globes

https://medium.com/@tedlivingston/moving-forward-boldly-with-kin-ec6290a6453 for those of you who dont want to read a medium full of dumb corporate speak: kik's shutting down to focus their entire efforts on CRYPTOCURRENCY this is truly going to work out for kik, i'm sure firing over 90 employees and keeping maybe two to four(i bet most of that "elite team" is corporate suits) and shutting down one of the biggest messaging apps doesn't have anything to do with the fact they produce no profit with kik and we're in the middle of a recession so the free money venture capitalists stops giving out bailout bucks

My boss told our 12 employee team that the new hire was hired at "the market rate", which he said is several grand a year more than most of us make, by "mistake" because HR didn't come to him first with the offer before it was sent out. He was letting us know so that we wouldn't find out through the rumor mill. We started a new group chat immediately and I suggested we all take our skills to the market since the market thinks we're worth more.

Unless you're in a red state, that time has long since passed. Realistically though, depending on the size of the company/size of the industry, there are some very careful steps you should take moving forward. If the union thing isn't an option, get offers from other companies in the industry. Document who you talked to and when, because if your boss confronts you about shopping for a new job when all you've told is prospective employers, they're colluding and it could severely limit your prospects. You won't get Kaepernik bucks, but it beats finding a new industry. If you enjoy the company, take the new offer to your current employer to see if they will match it. If it's a 6 figure job, consult an employment lawyer. Some places allow for compensation based on "constructive dismissal", basically they tried to force you to quit by making your job suck (hiring newbies, telling you up front they're paid more and you're not getting a raise) I am not a lawyer, but i've worked with quite a few, this is not legal advice. if it's worth it to you in a cost/benefit sense, talk to a labour lawyer in your state/province. Don't give them the benefit of doubt. Don't assume it was just an oopsie. Don't ever think they have your interests at heart. Don't tell anybody but other prospective employers that you plan on jumping ship. Do not leave without the protections you would have if you were fired. Do not assume you'll find a new job in a month and live off your savings. Chances are they think they're playing chess and they think they're paying checkers.

Cool how his unforced error tipped his hand and now you're all gonna get what you're worth tho. Is it an unforced error though? Most places if you're fired you're owed severance depending on your tenure. But not if you quit! Whether you quit/are fired/are layed off can determine what benefits you are entitled to. Unemployment isn't an entitlement, it's Insurance. You've paid into it, you're entitled to it if your job is terminated. Don't be too proud to claim it, again, it's insurance. You just got hit by a car, and you will have financial damages because of it. Even if it means starting at the bottom rung of the next company, that's potentially hundreds of thousands of dollars in accrued benefits.

Zamujasa posted:good one I've worked with idiots who were cheaper to keep around despite their gently caress-ups than fire. In some places it's called "common law severence" In BC, if you're over 40, have been there 10 years, and earn $100k a year, you're owned at least 12 months compensation. I don't know if you could afford to walk away from 100 grand, but i can't Again, you didn't give much info and you shouldn't but protect yourself. e: Also, lawyers are dicks too. If they hear it's happening to 12 people they'll smell blood(and cash) ask them about yourself personally, if you feel you can trust them(you can't!), bring up your comrades in the same situation.

Owlbear Camus posted:It doesn't sound like layoffs, though, it just sounds like he said "we're gonna tell you flat out to your face we're undercompensating you and daring you to unionize about it?" Exactly. That's called constructive dismissal. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constructive_dismissal It's a layoff in every sense but the words. They're telling you you're worthless so you quit and they can get out of a ton of liability. Call me jaded, but never assume another human being has anything else on their mind but another dollar in their pocket at the end of the day. If they bring up their religion in a business dealing, assume they want your soul, too. The terminology he used. "Team", "HR", "market rate", and "a starting wage several grand a year more" suggests it is absolutely in his best interest to take every available measure to see he comes out of this whole, regardless of his career path going forward.

Re: unionizing, I'm in maybe the reddest state, but this is a multi global mega conglomo corp so I'm unsure which rules apply. There are ~200 employees across the US that share my job title. There are probably 1400 employees total including some real shift-workin' folks. We got a new CEO in the last 6 months.

I'm sure being on a list is the last thing mister .............gently caress e: just googling other hosed redneck hillbilly states, Tennessee: An Employee's Duty quote:Many people quit their jobs on a regular basis. Many people do so because they feel that they have been treated unfairly or even abused during their employment. If an employee feels that they have been purposely subjected to an unbearable work environment by their employer, it is that employee's duty to report the existence of such working conditions to management. An employee is required to show that he or she made an effort to make an employer aware of the situation before resigning to allow the employer a chance to remedy the situation and avoid legal action. However, if the employer ignores the complaint, an employee may have grounds to take legal action through a constructive discharge claim. lol. The ol' "find another way to fire me" trick.

Do not become addicted to employment, It will take hold of you and you will resent it's absence Also, even though the "secret" is out, make sure you can't be reprimanded for discussing wage if you plan to do so.
