Corporations are super unstable now, making it impossible to get promoted
Poast new message in this thread
Date: June 16th, 2017 8:05 PM Author: autistic tattoo foreskin No one ever gets promoted anywhere, ever. This is due to the following reasons—
a.) it's the norm for milquetoast fungible middle managermos who are excellent at job interviews to either get fired or job hop. There is always some amazing idiot to come off the street and steal your bossprick's job. The instability in the job market and economy means that the job market is rife with these folks. It's not like it's the 1960s and theres Bell Labs and IBM and GM, all being chill bros and not firing their employees. Did "recruiters" and "HR" even exist back then b.) HR Women limit their selection process such that it is optimised for persons in (a). The fact that they need like 1-10 years to gain parity with their subordinates' knowledge level is overlooked in favour of the superior Resumes and Phenotypes and Soft Skills of external hires c.) Everyone is aware of 1000 ways in which an existing employee sucks. A guy off the street can just wear a suit for 45 minutes and conceal his many flaws because there is not enough time for them to reveal themselves. |

Date: June 16th, 2017 8:25 PM Author: Jade swashbuckling station Yeah "working your way up the ladder" is very much a boomer concept. Internal promotion of employees does not happen, you have to job hop to move "up", increase salary (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3650010&forum_id=2#33576849) |

Date: June 18th, 2017 9:20 PM Author: autistic tattoo foreskin You can job hop internally and get a salary bump, but *ONLY* if insodoing, you screw over some earnest, immensely more-qualified striver who was working directly under the fellow you're replacing for like 7 years. There can be NO monetary reward without human sacrifice. It is a zero-sum game and your advancement can only be wrought through the Destruction of another. If a Loser just moves up the ladder linearly, seamlessly, without complaint, he will just receive a 1% raise and TONS of criticism because the organisation, or Firm, cannot STAND for earnest, hard-working saps. The linear upward ladder is effectively, completely, COMPLETELY closed off. When it comes to screwing over some earnest Loser's career, management will always draw first blood as a matter of course. They don't need a reason. If you're an earnest, hard-working Loser, your career's days are numbered, counting down QUICKLY to 0. Sure, they might keep you around, and probably pay you 40% less than some random job hopper doing the same job, but they will regard you, and 90% of your cohort, as ignominious dalits. |

Date: June 18th, 2017 9:42 PM Author: Jade swashbuckling station Yes and perhaps that whole concept of career progression is just an artefact of the late 19th-20th century economic boom that will not be replicated. Before that time if you were a farmer you stayed a farmer, a blacksmith stayed a blacksmith, a wheel right a wheelwright from your apprenticeship until death. The nature of your work and pay was pretty much static. Advancemen was for the very few nobles and achieved through politics not your "work ethic".
I think we are returning to the older pattern of life where your rile in society is related more to your pedigree than to anything else. The 20th century american guy getting promoted from shop floor to management was driven by the extraordinary growth that occurred in the 20th century and the sheer need for people to fill new jobs.

This is after 3 years of pissclit COL increases. My new employer is paying me 35k more. It's laughable. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3650010&forum_id=2#33589504) |
