When performance is not the only parameter for your appraisals

Your Boss is judging you on the basis of your family income…like seriously.

There must be some people out there who confronted such a weird situation wherein all the year you are the star performer but when it comes to your appraisal, it’s another way around.

That’s really not acceptable to see when your immediate supervisor judging you and giving you less monetary benefits considering your huge family income. Supervisor has a confident complete frame of mind that this is an ideal decision for such employee and without any hard feelings he communicate this to employee as if he can convince the star performer very easily.

That time obviously you feel like my family is not here to generate profits for the company, to complete long list of targets every month, to make eye catching presentations etc.

If one is capable, had all the required educational qualification and expertise to sustain as well as to succeed in his/ her job then why this injustice?

What’s your mistake if you are born in a family with silver spoon or associated with a family having good reputation and income too.

Does this mean you do not fit into the fair criteria decided by your organisation because you are born rich.

Let’s look at other side, an employee with good performance and a poor family background; do he will get some extra compensation or extra salary hike other than what his performance justify? No, absolutely the answer is No; from every side (organisation, supervisor).

This is ridiculous, better to quit such kind of job where you are not solely judged on the basis of your performance but on the shoulders of your family background #BeingRichIsNotACrime

Let me know your views and any such instance happened with you.
