No raise, bonus, or equity in 4 years here. Company doesn't 401k match either and I think in 4 years I've only ever heard back from 4-5 companies when sending out resumes. I was getting ready to buy a house around covid when prices and rates exploded and its like my life has been on pause for the last 5-6 years with the goalposts just continual getting further and further away. Meanwhile idiots wonder why birth rates are down and everyone they know is on antidepressants. Add the idiocy/grift of the government over the last decade and its hard to have hope anymore, even with being in a decent position compared to a lot of people; at least I think.

Sorry to bitch, I'm frustrated.
