I'd also like to add that we're grossly underpaid/underappreciated for all that we do. We can EASILY go elsewhere and do the same amount of work with a $20k/year salary hike, but we stay because we like the company. We get other perks like being able to do whatever we want, working whatever hours we want, but still, the company DOES take advantage of this.
It just seems like the ONE time a year that they can redeem themselves by saying, "Hey, we really do appreciate your work, we do understand you're underpaid, so here's something for your troubles," they simply overlook it.
Yeah yeah, I know you're probably thinking, "then go work elsewhere." Sadly, I think it may end up getting to that point. I feel bad though because if we leave, the company will end up being screwed.. but I just don't know what to do anymore.
