In reply to the discussion: Yelp Employee Fired After Public Post To CEO Saying She Can't Afford Food [View all]cbdo2007
(9,213 posts)38. She doesn't sound like the type of employee that gets promoted and gets raises.
She sounds like the type that complains and probably thinks all her work is super important and thinks she deserves this and that just for them being honored with her presence.
I've worked with lots of people like that, we all have them in our companies, and they are rarely the ones chosen for promotions or big raises. People put up with them and give them work to shut them up hoping they'll be miserable and leave quietly so they can hire someone better.
Employees and their concept of "getting a promotion every year" is one thing I've noticed about a lot of people that just doesn't make sense in most companies. You should probably be getting a promotion about every 3 years on average if you are doing a good job.
