- bb88 2y agoUsually front line managers are kind of hamstrung. Yes they can fight for their people, but the reality is, that if the C-Suite only wants to give you a %2 raise because well, they have an off-site meeting in Maui -- well tough. The modern management model has been to reduce the power of the front line manager to the point he can only maybe hire and fire, but then he is the one to give the employee bad news.
- brazzy 2y agoThere was never a management model where front line managers could freely decide on raises. There's always a budget, and you playing favourites causes drama.
