Saia is a publicly traded company. Everything ALL levels do is to provide positive results on paper to entice stock purchase and increase analyst love. Realize and accept, by continuing to work here, you’ve agreed to do what they tell you to do for the pay you agreed to. Could we be better? Heck yeah. Across all avenues. For employees, managers & those other people (customers). Unless you’re the upper mgt you refer to, show up & do the best you can and manage that direct deposit wisely.
