Message: [QUOTE="WoodsRider, post: 211719, member: 16545"] I used to work for an company that was in a financial mess and wouldn't give regular raises. Most of the time you'd have to demand a raise. Sometimes they'd cough it up between 10% & 12% and give the employee a new title. Other times they'd just tell the employee to take a hike. Of course then they'd hire a replacement and have to pay them more than what the previous employee requested. This was the direct result of poor management. After putting up with their BS I finally left and within three years doubled my former salary. When I gave notice they tried like hell to get me to stay even offered to beat the offer I'd received, but I had already accepted the other job. I won't use another job to threaten an employer. If they consider me an asset and value my skills and experience then they'll compensate as such. If they consider me disposable then they'll treat me as such too. Tell your wife to find a new job!
