You also have to understand the company's situation ma. Maybe
rainee's company is viewing her as cheap labor. I know of graduate
engineers working for 1.2 to 1.5 k starting salary at big
consultant companies and getting thier @ss squeezed so badly. I got
talk to the managers before n they say its because turn over , high
. THey leave after a year working or so getting experience etc etc
, so they not so keen on the pay increase yet. N they know the
market got lots of graduates so they just wait it out see who stays
who leaves then decides. Ask not what your company can do for u ,
but what U can do for ur company. mmm... wait.. sounds familiar..
LOL!
I understand your situation in client. Pay peanuts n u get monkeys.
But how much is the justifiable amount ? In your case , you know ,
because u are in control of your working environment and in a 1 to
1 basis to ur client. But she is under a company o. I not trying to
say anything la, maybe her company really squeezing her @ss, but i
am just explaining on her interview why they would react the way
they did ah.
OR! Bring them to industrial court.. sue thier @ss. Nowadays
employees are more protected and i give u a 90% chance of winning
her case. Exercise her rights n SUE THIER BALLS OFF!
