There's something to be said here about following through on promises. When this company promised this worker a raise a year ago and then refused to follow through, all they were doing was stacking dominos that were ready to fall. It doesn't take that much effort to follow through on promises so it's hard to imagine what these idiots were thinking here.
It doesn't seem unfair to expect a promised raise, especially in light of their contribution to dramatically increased production. Honestly, it's hard to see what the company was expecting here other than the loss of this valuable employee. It's going to cost them a lot more than the raise that he was asking for to train someone new for the role. By then, they will have probably lost this $3 million project for good too.
Read on and then check out this overworked employee who negotiated what he was owed after working 90+ hour weeks.
