I worked at a place that did this. ‘The rare few’ were awarded small raises… the rest of us got a chocolate bar on our desks and a printed note that said ‘You make us great.’ Morale plummeted for months afterwards each time that they did it.

I worked in an office that did this, 2.5% was the last raise i ever got from them, less than inflatuon - for years after that, they got better and Bette at spinning the tale that they were doing it tough and couldn't afford it - meanwhile the directors building new houses and buying luxury cars was a clear sign they were actually decieving and abusing their staff. As soon as they say this shit start making plans to move on. The honeymoon isn't just over, the bride has rigor mortis!
