Issuing no options to a 4 year old employee can mean exactly one thing - it was not a very valuable employee that they weren't keen on retaining. That's about it.
- prepend 7y agoI don’t know what an “Operations Associate” is but having a junior person report directly to the COO seems like a really junior admin/help with everything/type. It’s weird that the COO wouldn’t give options to her admin, I think. It could also be OP overestimating her value. When I was starting out I thought that working super hard and helping everywhere was the most important thing in the world to me. It took me a while to figure out how value is created for organizations.
