In today’s workplace, many employees are finding themselves at odds with management over fair compensation.
Despite promises of competitive pay and bonuses, some companies resort to sneaky tactics to avoid giving well-deserved raises. This is where malicious compliance comes into play—a strategy where employees follow the rules to the letter, often exposing the flaws in management’s schemes.
Recently, a Reddit user (u/letowyn) shared a story in the Malicious Compliance subreddit about their experience with a boss who tried to replace raises with a deceptive bonus system based on Key Performance Indicators (KPIs).
Instead of rewarding hard work, the system was designed to keep salaries low. However, the employees turned the tables by meticulously meeting the KPIs, ultimately highlighting the inefficacy of the unfair system and showcasing their resilience.
