Hi guys, I am really confused and much annoyed how corporates think of regarding when it comes for making payments. A couple of days back I had witnessed one of the meetings of our company being presided by the GM of our company. Our company is an MNC the one thing which annoyed me and amused me in the whole meeting was our GM declaring the company will give its employees Value but no considerations towards pay. Hence I do not known what does value pay me. can it help me procure my provisions, pay my bills, fill the fuel in my bike, make payments of bars and restaurants.Thanks a lot

To be valued, hah a nice expression indeed. I just think the company is not interested in maintaning its work force if it can say those words. Yes, to be valued means to give you s**t. It is asking you to be prepared in advance as it is not going to pay you any thing. That's what those words mean to me.

Honestly, I take a lot of crap at my job. There is not other way of explaining. If I acomplish one thing, the concentration is on the thing that I did not complete. It is very frutrating and makes me feel like all my hard is lost. However, when it come to review time, the amount of my raise lets me know that they realize that I what I do is hard and is valued. Honestly, I would be happy to have someone say, nice job every once in while, it would make my work day go faster. Sometimes, there are more important things than money, like happiness and feeling content.

its very difficult to dirrentiate of being valued ot paid. both has to maintain balance, so both can go parellel and have proportion as fifty-fifty,. if you are highly paid and not given any value then it is of no use, you feel feel low and demitivated, whereas if you are valued and not paid then social insecurity will develop and you cannot concentrate on waork n family. so both of these go hand in hand, they have to be properly balanced.
