My total comp this year is upwards of $250k, but basically I got shafted

If the person did 1 mil dollars worth of work, but only got compensated a quarter of a mil, isn't that getting shafted?

Just because the numbers are bigger, doesn't mean it is less deserving of being fair.

Nope. You need to make more than you’re paid (on average of course). If this does not happen it does not make sense keeping you around.
