that was certainly how i felt about raises at one job. good reviews every year, but sometimes a big raise, sometimes a tiny raise. no pattern.
once that realization sunk in, i basically checked out of the work.
raises continued with no pattern.
- tomatotomato37 6y agoI've had that experience too. I've gotten a big raise, a promotion, and a tiny raise all off an employee "report card" that has had the exact same letter scores each time to the point I think the majority is copy pasted.
