Why are raises a big secret and management won't discuss any salary plans? We all find out anyway that some chosen dude got a 10% raise and rsu's - so why no just admit it's based on favoritism and perception - not on performance or accomplishments? At least there'd be no illusions that the masses will be given equitable pay for their work and then people would leave for companies that have pay based on valid criteria. But they stay because they believe the hype that "maybe next year we'll get a bucket of money to give you a raise"

I really like this post. Why not just say that your raise is dependent on following your manager's tail. Maybe they should add an item to the list of stuff you are supposedly evaluated against like:
- How well did you make your manager feel? Did you give you manager enough complements? Did you ever disagree with your manager (bad)? Did you ever contradict your manger in public (bad)?
What the hell, why not just make it a formal requirement for the job?
