Xiaomei pushed the email aside and began to ponder. She knew she had to do something, but it was clearly unrealistic to take on a large company all by herself. Although Zhang Xiaohu was already helping her gather information, the evidence they had was still far from sufficient. How many people within the company truly cared about the small employees who had been laid off? Most colleagues would be too preoccupied with their own situations after the layoffs; who would be willing to step forward and speak out?
"Wait a minute, Zhang Xiaohu," a thought flashed through Xiaomei's mind.
She dialed Zhang Xiaohu's number, and after a moment, his voice came through the line. "Master, what's going on?"
"I received the company's compensation plan, and as expected, it's only N+1," Xiaomei sighed, her tone filled with helplessness.
"They really have some nerve," Zhang Xiaohu replied, sounding even angrier than Xiaomei. "With so many people laid off, they should be compensating at least N+2. How can they offer so little?"
"That's just how big companies operate," Xiaomei scoffed. "They bet that we ordinary employees won't dare to make a fuss."
"But you're different, Master," Zhang Xiaohu's voice was resolute. "You're not someone who can be easily pushed around. We already have some evidence; what should we do next?"
"Do you have any ideas?" Xiaomei turned to look out the window, her fingers lightly tapping on the desk. She wasn't someone who easily gave up, but she also understood that outsmarting a large company required not only evidence but also wisdom and courage.
Zhang Xiaohu fell silent for a few seconds before speaking softly. "A few days ago, I heard some news. The company has an internal document that clearly outlines the compensation standards and terms. But this document isn't public; we need to find more evidence to prove they are deliberately reducing the compensation amount."
"An internal document?" Xiaomei's eyes lit up. "Can you get your hands on it?"
"That’s a bit difficult," Zhang Xiaohu hesitated. "Only HR and upper management can see that document; regular employees have no access to it. But I know someone who mentioned this document to me before; we just can't get it directly."
Xiaomei gritted her teeth, gradually forming an idea in her mind. "We could try reaching out to those laid-off colleagues and see if they have similar emails or documents. With so many people laid off, there must be some who are dissatisfied."
“Hmm, I have the same thought,” Zhang Xiaohu agreed. “Also, it seems there have been some changes in the finance department recently. A friend of mine just got transferred out of there; he might know some insider information.”
Xiaomei nodded, deciding to focus on gathering more evidence moving forward. She was determined not to let the company escape responsibility so easily.
“I’ll reach out to those who were laid off and see if I can gather some evidence. Then I’ll figure out how to obtain internal documents from the company,” Xiaomei quickly made her decision, preparing for the actions ahead.
After hanging up the phone, Xiaomei began contacting her former colleagues one by one. She first reached out to a few familiar friends, explaining the situation about the company lowering compensation and tentatively asking if they would be willing to join her in standing up for their rights. At first, many were reluctant to step forward; after all, opposing a large company came with high costs, and everyone preferred to keep things quiet. However, gradually, a few began to hesitate after hearing her explanation.
“Why should the company compensate us less?” On the other end of the line, a colleague named Li Li spoke with anger in her voice. “I’ve worked here for five years; how could they offer me such a meager compensation in the end? They’re bullying us honest workers!”
“Exactly,” Xiaomei seized the moment. “We need to unite. Only if we have enough people can we truly pressure the company. Do you know any other colleagues who would be willing to join us?”
Li Li was silent for a moment before finally agreeing, “I’ll ask a few others who were laid off and see what they think.”
