Let's Talk About Company's Loyalty

The coming of May is indeed very significant to some of my friends. Some of them, which I think I should said 2 of them, should be reporting to their new company by tommorrow. Quiting their first job, then getting a new and a better one (perhaps), is something everyone is looking for.

The first reason that I usually asked them was, what was thereason for them to quit their job, and they just said that they were not happy working in that company due to the management. Whether earning cames into paly, I really don't know. (which I guessed, it does play a significant role here).

So, talking about company's loyalty here, I am just sharing some of the idea from my friend's blog regarding this issue. Staying in a company for a long time, does that consider loyal to that company? For the older generation, they might had that kind of thinking, since they are being accepted into the company for such a long time, and there somehow or rather had the mentality of "Hey, I need to work hard for the sake of the company, since they give me an opportunity to work there..."

However, does that apply to the generation nowadays. When we are talking about the idea of building k-workers, what a company need to do is to constantly provide a room of gaining new knowledge to their workers, by so building the sense of loyalty among their workers. Well, this is of course one of the ways to keep their asset in their company. If they failed to do so, why should we stay put in that company and left to rot? It will only tainted our resume in the future.

Then speaking of salary point of view. Well, since company always demand for loyalty, they should not only talk about it, they should show it as well. What is important to the workers is to earn more money for a better life. So, by provide extra incentives, bonuses and better increments, it gives the workers an idea of the company cares for their lifestyles as well. So, this is where the loyalty is being built. There is no point of forcing workers to work so hard, but not sharing the profit with workers, or given a less salary, but overload them with so many jobs. If such a scenario happened, I guess most people will just turn their head to the next door which offer them a better wellfare.

I had a phone conversation with my friend last Saturday. A friend which I had not been in contact for nearly 6 months. She called me, thinking that I will be in KL for the coming holiday. So, we had a chat, and I begin telling her what I situation is currently. It is not wrong to say that I am not happy with my work. Well, I dare to say so because currently, I was forced to work like nobody had ever work before. Imagine that someone is being force to work for 7 days per week, and being paid at such a rate. What makes thing worse was, I had to do two people job with only 1 pay. So, if you were to say that I am loyal to my company, I can only say that you are simply wrong. It is because the management does not care about people wellfare. What makes me stay put for 1 year till date is the experiences I have yet to gain. Once I had collected it, then is time to say goodbye to the company
