'Thanks, but no thanks': Long-standing employee resigns after being refused a reasonable raise, then the company insults him with ‘too little, too late’

Finally, a greedy company gets what they deserve!

It's far too often that we see companies taking advantage of employee loyalty. Whether it's the fear of finding a new job, worries about job uncertainties, or just plain ol' convenience, it's hard for employees to uproot their careers and leave the company they've worked for for decades–and your boss knows that. Using this to their advantage, greedy bosses will ring their employees out for all their worth, refusing raises, stifling bonuses, and cutting support staff until workers reach a breaking point. And guess who's there to offer a pathetically low raise once their employee snaps?

The long-standing employee in our next story refused to become another unappreciated cog in his company's machine. Although a meager $1000 annual raise would have placated him for another 12 months, this company refused to do his regular annual reviews and raises. Even after 15 years of loyalty, they jilted their worker for no reason, canceling reviews, cutting his team, and increasing his workload without a good reason. Naturally, this guy decided to use the company's neglect as fuel to the rage-quitting fire, throwing in the towel with pizazz.
