"Underpaid. I was responsible for all daily responsibilities. The manager was salaried, but after all of my hard-work and dedication I received a raise to $9.50/hr after being promised $10/hr. It wasn't until I received my paycheck that I noticed the pay rate. I did so much in the store and spent so much time working that I was believed to be the salaried manager or the owner. $9.50/hr doesn't seem like an appropriate pay level for the job."

"I feel as though I wasn't getting paid as much as I should've been. I came on as a Conference Services Coordinator, but they then asked me to manage their social media.
