This seems like an empty threat to me. Every promotion I’ve ever gotten internally has come with a negligible pay increase (~4%). The best promotions I’ve gotten have been leaving to take a new job somewhere else (~20-50%).
That would be the dream, but it hasn’t panned out, and my long notice period is hampering me. I’m not going to continue slogging it out here indefinitely, and I don’t need to.
I don’t need any additional anxiety to discourage me from getting out of this before I just burn out and am in a worse position.
I saw a handmade sign in a floating workshop for ships, it stated “Please Resist Entropy”. That has inspired me ever since. It sounds like you are resisting entropy and good for you. Wish you better times and a better job. o7

And that 4% just buys you a year before inflation cuts it back down again. Searching for a job from home is easier.
Promotions haven’t been worth it for 30 years. Most people stick around cuz it’s a PITA getting a new job
If promotion means becoming a manager… no thanks.
Can confirm. ^^’
Though I am just going to resign on Monday and give myself the push.

Man these sensational titles for articles have been setting such a deceiving narrative. I feel like I’m in a veiled world since like 2015
