I need to rant about something.

My fellow shift manager and I were recently given a merit raise by our DM/AC. We were making $14. I was given a job offer for another chain making $17. I was just going to leave for the better paying job but, I had this morbid curiosity about what would happen if I gave the hut an opportunity to match the pay.

I was betting on them not even entertaining the idea bc in the past (a different dm/ac) laughed in my face when I told them I was expecting to make "a living wage" when I asked for a cost of living adjustment. But, when I was told that not only would I be getting my offer matched, but so would my coworker, I was ecstatic!

They care (a little)! The raise went through around Thanksgiving. Cut to about a month ago, our DM/AC has switched to someone else. This DM is grumbling to staff that "people at my store make too much". And then my coworker magically is being paid $14 again. She is freaking pissed. And being given the run around. I had our GM at the time update my rates in Fms so the numbers matched payroll but my coworker didn't get a chance to do that so theoretically it could have been a payroll glitch with ultipro and Fms not matching. And a real kick in the ass, I can see where my AC made the edit in our payroll system (ultipro). So I'm thinking my coworker should be able to see who edited her shit back down but SHE CAN'T ACCESS HER FUCKING ULTIPRO. Like half the people at my store can't get into the schedule app or payroll app. It's just a shit show. And they keep saying "it's been reset" but then logging in still is fucking broken!

I'm just pissed for everyone at my store because the tools they have to track the money THEY EARNED are unavailable to them, meanwhile someone higher up could just go in to anyone's profile and change shit and who knows how long it would take to catch. Then when you do figure out a discrepancy there is no accountability or apology, or anything.
