Employee didnt receive raise in three years but had to attend a financial wellness workshop: Company that made us 0% raise is now paying.

An exasperated employee highlighted their company's contradiction: offering personal finance workshops while denying meaningful salary increases for three years.

This initiative, perceived as insensitive, was met with disbelief by employees who felt fair pay would be a more effective solution.
