Did a whole project that generated big revenue but getting shorted
I work at a startup. I have never encountered this before but the ceo is non tech and I’m a solo engineer. I was promised a small raise and a bonus if I complete the project solo without getting help. if the ceo has to hire another contractor to help me out my bonus would get cut by 66%. It’s a massive project and I’ve shipped the project that is now generating revenue. My bonus was shorted and I had put overtime to meet insane deadlines. ive put in so much effort and I feel like I am being punished for getting help. I fucking hate working for a non tech person. I have no other job lined up and I had no choice because this is my job I could get right after being laid off for a year. I feel angry. I had put overtime while the boss goes and travel and I get shorted. Has anyone delt with this before and how did you handle it
