You're making ad hominem attacks. Yes comparatively it is ridiculous to portray this as a major issue, but just because other people are less-off doesn't mean you should let yourself get screwed over. It's also worth considering that is a discussion on a tech-oriented website, so here it is important.

And you're basically right, it was a cost-benefit analyses. And it was illegal to act upon it the way they did, which is the whole point.

Absolutely if your an "engineer" on 150k pa you are still just a worker you still will face issues at work OK maybe slightly slightly different ones to say a semiskilled car worker or a Navvy might face.

But those sort of jobs dont face a lot of the issues that come with professional ones - if your a docker you boss is not going to trick you out of your vested stock and cost you millions ala silver lake partners.
