I think the main difference here from what most people are posting is... I work for a much smaller company where I have personally known each and every person in management for 1/3 of my life.
As hash_browns said, we've been working here since we were in our mid-teens..
I know if I worked for a big corporation I probably wouldn't get one - that's expected.. but not from such a small and personal environment like this.
I know people are saying "be appreciative you even got anything/have a job", but... they are the ones taking advantage of US in terms of pay/extra compensation. They should be appreciative they have people like us keeping the company afloat. Like I said, I can easily get a job anywhere else (and it would RUIN the company).. but being a place where I personally know people on a level more than "just a job", it's kinda BS that it even remotely turns up like this.
It would be equivalent to working for your best friend knowing helping him pull in a few million a year and you only get a slight fraction of that.
