Should I Stay or Should I Go Now...

I've been updated my resume.

I really screwed up not taking the package that was offered in Jan.

I thought a promotion was the other alternative. That not going to happen, they are just doing away with that position. So k be expected to do the work without the pay.

My company has made it clear that money is God and people do not matter. And my new manager is completely in support.

At this point I hope I can maintain my composure and not get myself fired.

I really hate going into work everyday, but I'm torn because I really just wanted to work here the more years and retire.

I tell my children and my students to follow a simple rule in their interactions with others, don't be an asshole. Why that can be so challenging for some people perplexes me.

It is hard not to be, sometimes.

Sometimes it just flows so naturally I don't even realize it.

I think it's my neuro-divergence so I don't realize it when it's happening.

Yeah, right now companies are expecting you to do more and more for the same pay. I took on responsibility for 2 extra teams last year, and my boss cut my bonus by 60%...
 
I'm surprised no one has suggested doing what Tommy Lloyd did....

Get the rumors started that another big named firm is after you, leverage it for money and not having to report to this woman.

Yes, or bonus were down 50% this year.

I lost a team member in Jan. Today I recieved permission to hire a replacement. TWO pay grades below the person that left.

Several people in higher pay grades took the voluntary package. They are all being replaced by people making at least 25% less.
God money...
 
Interesting read.

I’m in a job I hate, but the only reason I’ve stayed is my boss is amazing and I don’t want to abandon her in this shitshow.

Customer/business partner is the most difficult I’ve ever worked with. Vendor is trying, but will never be able to deliver what this customer expects. My boss is about a year from retirement and I’m trying to hold on until then, but the day she gives her resignation, I am too.

I'm not sure I'm that important... but the good news is that I told her I was not happy when she communicated my bonus... said I was not sure it was worth doing the work... apparently she ran to the CEO to make sure she got to him before I did. He reached out to me and bumped my bonus up to same as last year.

I was in compensation my whole career. As such I was always very involved in managing Performance reviews
In general, in State Govt the set up just sucked. Mainly top Management was always Excellent and bottom level masses "Okay"
