I remember it used to be “Oh, not much in terms of payrises this year. The business isn’t doing so well”. Now they just don’t care enough to even lie to you.
It’s “Another record breaking year, amazing work team, except that team, you’re all redundant now. Also everyone else, sorry only 1% raise left for you from our record breaking year. Also, there’s now a whole team’s worth of work to pick up. Chop chop”
You guys get 1% raises every year? Working for someone else in construction in Alberta guys are making the same 30-35 an hour that they were as journeymen that they were like 15 years ago.

They unironically say this while posting record quarterly profits. Raises, training budget, and travel budget though? Sorry, no money.
