Nope!Ketten
Are you paid for the extra days you work, I am reading it you are paid can you clear this up to get a better response,
I think you have shown yourself to be reliable and going the extra mile for the company. However it has to end sometime. You should plainly tell your boss you will not continue to work for free. He needs to address this, the client is not your concern, its his. Not paying staff is all on him. You need to act professionally, take the bull by the horns and have a conversation with him. If payment is not an option ask for equity, or back payment within X amount of months but get it in writing, with a solicitor. The guy is taking complete advantage of you.My integrity is being tested. If I do what everyone says I should do and not be available on Thursday and Friday, my reputation is at risk as I will be considered non communicative and lacking in efficiency.
Just saw this. If you are involved in financial services, why were you put on 3 days?? Financial services weren't hit by Covid. We were even given essential service status (god knows why? )I also completed the full QFA in 8 months over lockdown which is beneficial to the business.
That's rubbish, loyalty is very important but it cuts both ways. It is certainly the case that the employer should show more loyalty but if it isn't a two way thing then it can produce a very corrosive environment.Loyalty to a company is a load of rubbish. People are hired to work in exchange for money. If you weren't paid money, you'd be gone. And if the company didn't have the work for you, you'd be let go.
Companies are rarely loyal to their employees. There may be a boss who is loyal to their staff but if that person leaves, that is gone.That's rubbish, loyalty is very important but it cuts both ways.

First, off you should be paid for the extra hrs,There is one main investor who is in the background, they are a partnership so whilst my boss would 'report' to him it is very much a partnership. I have a really good relationship with him also but am not naive enough to think he doesn't know what is going on. I had a meeting arranged with him last week (to get him to sign some stuff, completely normal) and when I got there my boss was also present. It was as if he didn't want me talking out of school so to speak. The funny think was the minute I had seen he had excused himself from a meeting, I knew he would be there and i wasn't wrong. I am also not naive enough to speak out of school.
Could I offer the same services - no.
I have opened up conversations elsewhere.
Has the CEO of the client speculatively said he wants 'one of me' and can i help him find the person - yes. But with conflict of interest even if I left the firm I could never work directly for him. I would imagine the contract between my firm and them would mitigate it.
Regarding giving him one last chance, I think I am beyond it at this stage. I have had 3 strikes already. I genuinely believe that because we signed this big client that neither of us will leave and that he can carry this on indefinitely.
Also what my role involves now and what was on my job description - different planets. I have a very can do attitude and have learned a heap and contributed alot to the business as a result without any bonus, pay increase, vhi, or pension. I also completed the full QFA in 8 months over lockdown which is beneficial to the business. Again, I was told I should be grateful it was paid for.
Nope!
I worked for a company for over 30 years who were very loyal to their employees for the simple reason to retain skill and ability, (common enough in Ireland,)Companies are rarely loyal to their employees. There may be a boss who is loyal to their staff but if that person leaves, that is gone.
Even if they are not loyal they should know that.Loyalty is when the top people in a company know it is the people who work under them
Who really pays their wages,
That's just not true.Companies are rarely loyal to their employees
In Kitten case, I don't expect Kitten will be paying their wages for much longer,Even if they are not loyal they should know that.
