I'm certainly not a liberal but it sounds like a lot of jealousy. The mentality of a lot of people is they would turn down a raise if it meant their coworkers got one too. They're not as concerned about what they're getting as they are what others are. Crabs in a barrel.
If the newbie got their salary tripled while you got squat after being there 5 years you'd be miffed too.
All those years of work you put in and the newbie walks through the door making the same as you.
Like a slap in the face.
People are not like that no matter how hard you wish for it.
I don't wish it. I prefer to live it.
Only in the statist (us v them, L v R, D v R) world do people assign motives and emotions to others.
I'm just suggesting what I would do. Personally, if I was a longtime employee and this happened at my company I would be disappointed in myself for not seeing it coming.
Or if I did see it coming I'd be angry with myself for not adapting.
That is...if this sort of thing would tick me off.
how about we wait for a year when the new clients added start to have an effect on the companies bottom line? big changes like this one are always fraught with problems, but they have a tendency to work themselves out. will they this time? i dont know, the lawsuit is a big wrench in the machinery.

I'd be looking for a new job where they valued experience over "fairness".
