A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.

Get a second job. Start a hobby. Start your own side gig.

If you just do extra work for the megacorp for no extra compensation, then they're just using you.

Yep just me doing extra work for no salary... well. I dunno. Company just implemented a new bonus structure based on the hours you record per project. I know it's just so they can see who's underperformed to fire, but I might get quarterly bonuses now for working longer hours.
