I am the original poster from the post linked in this article. I know these as a fact that a comparable property in my city would cost me much more than what you're paying. All the while I'm getting payed less than half of my coll

Thanks for this, helps me that people understand me and I'm not being very unreasonable. From what I've gotten from my discussions on my post is 1) I will start looking for contract work. Not going to be easy, but the best way for

Well the product this company makes is uniformly priced across all locations. So if i wanted to consume the product my company makes I would be paying the same price as US/UK.

Its not a crazy conspiracy, I know it's pretty clear why it's being done. And I know I can't do anything about it other than look for new opportunities. But should location based pay be just accepted because that's the n

I agree that these are blatant lies. Unionizing seems impossible? I'm not sure what it entails and how would one even go about it. Someone else mentioned about taking up contract work, which seems like something I can give a shot at.
