There are loads of facilities that will entice you to not quit

Dislikes

But those facilities are mostly for the bosses or very senior members. They duped e of my annual bonus just because I quit. I worked for the entire financial year and got a promotion too. But in my final settlement, they cheated me. I will never go back to this company. Juniors are hardly given opportunities. Seniors use the company's money to travel abroad for junkets and fulfill their travel goals.

The multiple bosses culture is one big mess to deal with... bosses with high ego levels kill tour productivity and leave you unattended for their own good benefits and once they don't like something they will roast you in every possible manner..

New Job, Higher Pay, Now I’m Feeling Awkward

I’ve been at my new job for about six months now, and everything’s been going great! I’m getting positive feedback from my manager, and I get along well with the team. The thing is, when I started, my salary offer ended up being much higher than the initial number discussed during my interview. I didn’t negotiate and just accepted the offer. So, fast forward to happy hour with the team, and the topic of salary comes up. I, unfortunately, shared what I’m making, and let’s just say... it didn’t sit well with the others who have been on the team for years and make less than me. They weren’t mad at me, but now I’m feeling a bit uncomfortable and unsure how to handle this situation. Has anyone had something like this happen? How did you deal with it? Let’s chat!
