Small Team of two three employees workload but learning good

Minimal Salary Increases: No hikes or promotions for the last three years, and increments are very low, typically 2-3%. Appraisal Delays: Appraisals shifted from April to October, yet only offering a 2-3% raise. We have been waiting for it for the last 18 months and have got nothing, not even 2-3%. Heavy Workload: Extremely high workload with no work-life balance. Leave Policy: Taking leave feels pointless as employees are expected to catch up on all missed work plus ongoing tasks upon returning. Poor Management: Senior employees do not take full ownership of projects. When deadlines approach, there is immense pressure, despite no proactive steps being taken. Delayed Support: Other teams often delay completing tickets, causing unnecessary delays and last-minute pressure on small tasks. Workload can be heavy, as a small team handles large responsibilities. Limited support, which can lead to pressure during tight deadlines.

Improve Compensation & Appraisal Process: Regular hikes and timely appraisals are essential for employee motivation and retention. Ensure that appraisals happen on time and with competitive increases.

Address Work-Life Balance: Introduce measures to manage workload more effectively. Promote a healthier work-life balance to avoid burnout and enhance productivity.
