My current salary is $43,000. This has been my salary for 4 years - no
raise, no bonus. No one in this office has had a raise in well over 4
years. When Mellon purchased Unifi, salary grades were established &
job groups were created - sounds like a fair deal but when you look at
the same job groupings (responsibilities & financial aspects) for other
offices, it's clear that - once again - Cary, NC office gets the short
end of Mellon's stick. If you are salary grade K here, that may mean
that you make between $25,000 - $37,000 but if you are salary grade K in
Ft. Lee, you would be making from $50-$67,000. Please know that these
salary grades assignments to different jobs were assigned to take into
account cost of living differences so take my job, a salary grade G in
Cary = salary grace K in Ft. Lee so while I'm making $43,000, my
counterpart in Ft. Lee is making $72,000. Sound fair to you?
There are no signing bonus' or year-end bonus' - there are no bonus'
period. There are no stock options or special perks. The big employee
perk is keeping your job in a company that hates people and goes out of
the way to make employees more miserable than the year before.
There are no reimbursements unless it is for an approved business trip
and even then you do not get paid for travel time, meals are limited to
specific locations & budget constrictions and you're forced to put
everything on a corporate card. So my last trip was about 10 days and I
had to put a roundtrip ticket on my card, 10 nights hotel & expenses and
transportation, etc. Standard limits on cards for Cary employees are
$2000; try making a trip 1/2 way across the country for almost 2 weeks
on $2000. what a joke.
When Mellon bought this company about 3 years ago, they took away a week
of vacation, a slew of benefits (STD, LTD, etc.) that were previously
available and now subjects employees to these vile working conditions.
There are no office parties, no family picnics, no christmas bonus', no
annual raises, no team building activities, no room for employee
development and if you try to do something about it, HR will be on you
like flies on .. well, you know where i'm going here.
