Indeed , I don't mind sharing this because it's linked to cutting of corporation tax and growth .
When I started at my previous company in 2011 the turnover was £20m , the company were established in the south of england and then decided to open a site up here too .
We did very well , so much so that by 2017 the turnover was £90m along with cuts to corporation tax the business was in pretty good shape .
Yes it created additional jobs but at least 75% were agency led and investment in the site was minimal given the growth .
My wages actually fell during this time , inflation kicked in and I received only one pay rise in the 6 years I was with the company .
I made strong and robust statements to the top man in charge and asked him why as an employee I hadn't so far shared in the companies success .
" because I don't have to and I can replace you within the hour "
In theory he could but it would take a new starter 12 months on the job to attain the knowledge of the job I did so crack on I thought .
Numbers , numbers with these people and the human element doesn't come in to it .
To be fair he did me a huge favour because I found another job that I love at a great company on significantly higher wages .
The company created profit but the economy didn't benefit , just the tip of the iceberg that company today in the UK .
Full employment ????
The Victorians had full employment too through workhouses .
