Do companies treat their employees awful if they pay you more?

Question

I recently worked for a company who paid a lot and they were mean but I don't know if all companies are like that.

Answer 1

I currently work for a company that pays me a lot more than my last - and they treat me great and are happy to have me on board!  It depends on the culture of  the office. Some companies  feel as if you are going to be more productive stressed out; and some feel you will be more productive happy.

Yes some boss' hold on to the idea that they need to hound you for you to be productive. But not all companies feel like they "own" you if they pay you more.

Good luck.

You are looking at it backwards, they don't pay you more and therefore feel entitled to be mean.  They are just mean, and because of that need to pay everyone more not to leave.  I have seen a correlation is some companies, but there are plenty of exceptions too.

Not all are like that but at the same time the more you make the more they expect in return.
