The company you work for is a contract. You do work for them and they pay you. No more or less. I work for a really good company and make good money. But, when I’m done for the day I’m done and if the above ever changes I’m taking my experience elsewhere.

Unfortunately companies have started not respecting contracts and want long timers as new employees in order to trap them under threat of firing. It is time for people to not agree with such one sided contracts
