I was actually told during a review that they couldn’t rank me higher because then they’d have to give me more money. My boss said I deserved it, but they didn’t have the money to give it to me.
I had something similar! But my manager was a former dev that I worked for that didn’t know how to manage and tried to convince me that I didn’t deserve it.

I started looking for a new job that day.
And yet they always seem to have enough money for executive bonuses and excursions…
Not to mention hiring the always more expensive replacement dev.
Used to work for CenturyLink. The year they took away our Christmas bonus is the same year the company really took a nosedive.
CEO got a 20
billionmillion dollar bonus, enough to cover our Christmas bonuses and still give him 15 million.Surely billion should be million there, no?

I got a 30% raise moving elsewhere.
