It must be nice to not ever worry about compensation. I havent gotten a raise in 2 years and there's no promotions available despite work enforcing horrid on-call and "team player" work hours.

I personally cannot wait for the market to improve so I can be compensated fairly. Pizza parties while the product, sales, etc teams get massive bonuses because "studies show employees wont ask for more money when they're appreciated" is a hyper-dense sphere of pure bullshit. When inflation stops effecting me and I can buy food with appreciation I'll care more about it. The best way to appreciate an employee is cold, hard cash.
