Managers most often don't pay from their own pockets. They are not trying to abuse, exploit, swindle, etc. They are just humans like you and me, trying to do their job. They have job openings, they hire for those, but generally don't have much say in the compensation for those openings. A lot of managers have simply to incentive to underpay. I can't talk about all, the world is too big, and there are probably plenty of exceptions. But the vast majority of managers simply would love to pay their employees as much as they could, only it's really not up to them.
Doesn't matter. The manager doesn't get a pass for following the owner's bullshit. The manager is complicit in the abuse of the employees, doesn't matter they were just 'following orders'.
Whole businesses have shut down over this. An entire burger king quit all at once and posted in on their signage.
I will never eat at another burger king knowing how they treat their workers now.
If more people had ethics and morals other than the 'holy profit' we'd be a much better society.
I, for one, stand with my brothers and sisters in their struggle.
I guess you need to have been through it to have empathy anymore.
