  A million dollars?!

  • mrgoosmoos@lemmy.ca ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    yeah, I’ve been with my current company as we’ve grown from like a million dollars in sales to 20 times that

    at a million dollars in sales, it was like five of us doing everything and we all worked so much to get it all done and build things to grow as time went on. so while I think this is opposite of what Jenny is trying to convey, a million dollar company would likely require no callouts at critical times.

    now, two points:

    1. that doesn’t make it ok. in my situation, we all enjoyed it and we’re compensated for it. that’s why it worked.
    2. a multi-million dollar company, with like 50+ employees, that’s I think what Jenny is trying to get at, real “big company” shit — in which case, a proper company such as that can handle a few callouts, else they are by definition not a company with their shit together

  Not even for the arrogance or lack of a weekend; but for the poor grammar and spelling. I don’t wanna work for a moron.

  I couldn’t agree more. Acting like a million dollar company is important.

  A million dollar company would recognize that reliable, continuous production and sales is more important to growth than the occasional hickup or a few extra bucks in the payroll budget. Thus, the million dollar company would hire sufficient staff that an occasional absence, even at a critical moment, would not harm production or sales.

  And a million dollar company would recognize that hiring sufficient staff is a wiser and more cost effective strategy than a possible labor lawsuit along with the associated bad PR.

    Nah, you’re thinking of a hundred-plus-million dollar company. Being understaffed and disastrously managed is about right for a million dollar company.

      Work for a Fortune 500, ~$100b company. Still understaffed. The greed never ceases.

  Yup. We’re a million dollar company that can’t afford managers who can spell.

• Cruxifux@feddit.nl ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

  A million is not that big for a company that has employees though.

  source

  • Diddlydee@feddit.uk ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    What does million dollar company even mean? Is that annual turnover? Financial value of the business? Either way it’s a pretty small business.

    source

    • Cruxifux@feddit.nl ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      It means “a number I just made up as the boss so I can belittle my employees”

      source
• minorkeys@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

  ‘We’ are an exploited labour force whose labour value is stolen by greedy, arrogant psychopaths. ‘We’ have only so much that can be taken before something snaps and I’m guessing ‘You’ are the closest company representative within our reach.

  No one ever accused any level of management of being intelligent. They’re just likes by the higher ups. At the executive level, theyre just heartless and mentally ill.

  • Buffy@libretechni.ca ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    This. Don’t forget about the evil that is HR. I was making good money with a nice career path in that field, but I had to quit because I couldn’t handle how they made me treat people. All my coworkers? Absolute robots. They hid behind the “I’m just doing my job” excuse and couldn’t identify right or wrong, just passed the orders down without sympathy. We had one guy that they couldn’t control with strong connections so they couldn’t fire him, and he really fought for his employees. They verbally tore him apart every day until he couldn’t handle it anymore.

  It amazes me that people who can’t distinguish between ‘your’ and ‘you’re’ are allowed to manage people

  Don’t. In this case yes, but overall there are dyslexics who are great managers. And on a more sober note, I’d rather have a manager who is shit in grammar but works for the team rather than a PowerPoint manager.

  If you’ve got enough employees that notices are tacked to a wall, and you’re not doing a million in sales, you don’t have much of a company!

  • Trainguyrom@reddthat.com ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    Could be 10 people making 50k a year in a shed with a couple of managers making more. Whether that’s a just a warehouse or actually making widgets or some such that’s easily a profitable business with a million or so in revenue. Or just a small shop with a handful of minimum wage employees. Maybe an office cleaning service? Some business models can be perfectly stable with a million or so per year in revenue

  the company owners aremulti million dollar assholes, that’s why we behave like this

  Stop the multi millionaires

  Nobody should be worth anything over 10 million. Anything after that should go 100% to taxes.

  With that, governments can actually give out free healthcare, free education, universal basic income and all on a high quality because it will have the funding now that we finally stopped a few from hogging all the world’s resources

  • ricecake@sh.itjust.works ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    99% agreed, but I’d increase the number a bit. With inflation and rising costs $10 million in net worth isn’t always an obscenity.
    It’s unquestionably wealthy, but still in the realm of attainable by an individual without being a bastard. Owning a single family home and a gas station in the San Francisco region and planning for retirement could put you in that realm.

    I don’t begrudge someone who worked hard having nice things. I don’t even begrudge luck, inheritance, or nepotism getting luxury. It’s when it’s beyond luxury and no one could get it with any amount of work.

    Tie it to the consumer price index or some such.
