The Management posted:I just got a great offer in another city. on a pure numbers basis I have to take it, but considering moving the wife, buying a new house, leaving everything I have going here does not sound like a good time. remote work is not an option. I will probably have to turn them down and I will probably never again see an offer like the dump truck full of cash they're offering me. poo poo The heck did you apply/interview then?

lol if you work for a startup and don't get paid figgies any company that isn't a shitheap or a pyramid scheme run by scammy bizbros will pay pretty drat close to market PLUS equity. the equity makes up for the relative uncertainty + your presumed dedication to the cause, not as an excuse to underpay the only people who should ever be ramen-poor are founders, and they have a corresponding upside

ADINSX posted:Not only do we not get a bonus, but I heard through the grapevine that HR was thinking about eliminating the policy to back-date raises (i.e if you had your annual performance review late feb and it concluded you deserve a raise for the year, they'll pay you the extra for the nearly two months you've worked) because "people get depressed because their paycheck goes back to normal". not backdating raises is incredibly lovely and an excellent incentive for your company to gently caress you over if they do it

old job did profit sharing with a formula like: 25% of profits split evenly among employees, 75% of profits split on a months-worked seniority basis that capped at 3 years (it was like a 5 year old company, probably this would change) I thought it was a ncie and fair way to do it, too bad they have trouble making a profit now lmao

once when I worked at retardo lockheed martin a manager (not mine) emailed my manager to 'tattle' that I was wearing jeans on a non-Friday. My manager didn't really care, but I swear to god this is the email that was sent: From: some idiot To: My manager Subject: VYO69 in Jeans? Body: Is today casual day? They weren't real surprised when I left, despite getting an A+ perf review
