If you are going to play the game of working in a corporation, the best time to apply to new jobs is the moment you get one. Loyalty died a long time ago, so don’t pretend your manager is on your side.
Or also go freelance and never let 1 person control your income. In capitalism, money is freedom. If someone controls your money, they control your freedom.
Your manager might be on your side, but most impactful decisions come from one or more levels above your manager, and they’re just as powerless as you to change corporate decisions.

underpay you
