1. Unfair salary increase policy– should follow the annual minimum wage adjustment, but in reality depends on the boss’s personal likes/dislikes and ability to flatter.
2. Family interference – the boss’s wife meddles in company policies despite lacking competence.
3. Gaslighting from management– says salary increases can be discussed, but employees who ask are immediately given a warning letter.
4. Resignation misinterpreted– the decision to resign is framed as “just wanting a raise.”
5. Late or unreliable salary payments – management fails to realize not all employees have savings or financial stability.
Hal yang baikSudden personal targeting– things might have been tolerable if it weren’t for the sudden snide remarks and personal digs directed at me.
TantanganThe challenge is the same as in many family-run businesses:
Salary increases that should automatically follow the annual minimum wage adjustment instead depend on likes & dislikes, or how good you are at flattering “His Majesty” the boss.
As if that’s not enough, the boss’s wife also jumps in to “manage” company policies.
To make it worse, she loves gaslighting: says salary increases can be discussed, but the moment you ask—boom, warning letter.
We resign, and suddenly the narrative is: “Oh, they just wanted a raise.”
Sorry boss, just focus on paying salaries on time first.
Not everyone has savings, and not everyone is as rich as you. Please, try using your conscience.
And for those saying this office is “still a good place”… please, let’s be honest here. Hehe.
