Crypto company I work at initially promised a big bonus in tokens after a year of work, it wasn’t put into contract but the CEOs promises to team were kept in email and they had a publicly visible vesting schedule on the site that stated so as well. However the ceo is refusing to give out bonuses after a year of work or execute the vesting. Dude is a humongous douchebag. Im not sure what I can do here to salvage my promised bonus. I control and own most of their public social media under my email... what can I legally do in this situation?
is that Thundertoken?
Nah. Thunder is legit tho
Nothing. Learn as move on.
Name and shame
NAME AND SHAME
Name the company
I am shocked that a crypto company would lie.
Crypto is a scam anyway, what do you expect
Name the company
Name the company. It’s the only sort of professional “revenge” you can have and helps the community know to avoid this company.
You get everything in writing and learn from your mistake. There is no recourse if it wasn’t written down. Make personal copies of the emails where the CEO made promises and the vesting schedule.
Everything Intuit said, also don't plan anything stupid like taking revenge on the company. I'm not sure why you mentioned owning all their social media accounts. Not worth ruining your life further.
To add to that, when you ask to get something in writing, and they won’t do it, you’ll know it’s BS upfront instead of banking on somebody’s word for a year. And as Microsoft said, maintain professionalism. Shooting yourself in the foot does more damage to you than the company. It has a worse ROI than doing nothing.
