Going back on a promise is not exactly how one maintains loyalty at a company. This employer made his own bed when he offered a new hire more money than the loyal employee who was promised a raise and promotion for the longest time. Perhaps this toxic boss was under the impression that no one was going to find out. Well, considering the fact that this employee splits responsibilities with their manager and is the only person with access to the same exact company information, the idea that he would never discover the truth just goes to show how ignorant this boss really was.
As many folks in the comments section pointed out, the employee already deserved said promotion a long time ago given that he seemed to have already been doing their boss's job for them during the search for the new hire. Not only is that unfair, but it only confirms that the level of disrespect this employee feels is not a fallacy in his mind.
Although he may have been a bit abrupt in his decision-making, we support his decision to quit on the spot. If he allows that kind of disrespect to exist in the workplace, it will only give his boss permission to disrespect him even more.
