One old adage I live by when it comes to people I work for... "Fuck you, pay me." There's an implied contract at play, companies exist to make money and I work

One old adage I live by when it comes to people I work for... "Fuck you, pay me."
There's an implied contract at play, companies exist to make money and I work for them to get paid (what I'm worth). If either of these proves false, either party is free to terminate the implied contract at any time. It sounds like they're reneging on their end to pay you what you're worth, so I'd start looking for new work buddy!
- comprev 3y agoHow do you establish how much _you_ are worth?
- stuff4ben 3y agoWhatever you're happy with making. I'm probably underpaid compared to others with my experience and skillset but IBM pays me enough to keep me happy and I am happy. So my paycheck is what I am worth in my mind. Sure I could be jealous of what some FAANG person makes but I can't let that guide my life. I have a great work/life balance and I get paid enough to make me happy.
