“Mr. Lennon, well… Well…”
Dozens of employees were at a loss for words.
The bosses they had had in the past, including Jimmy, had been fond of making empty promises to their employees. All they talked about was the vast potential for future development and promoting them to senior executives in the future. Eventually, they did not see any future prospects nor made any money,
Sean was rather straightforward at this point. He talked about money and not useless stuff.
“What’s the matter? Don’t you get what I mean?” Sean asked indifferently, picking up his coffee cup.
“Mr. Lennon, we’d like to hear what you have in mind first…” A young man in glasses said warily after a gentle cough.
“It means I don’t need you to talk about your ideals and ambitions if you work for me. Just do what I want to do well, and I’ll give you the money you want. That’s all you need to do.”
Everyone felt better as soon as Sean said that.
They worked to make money to support the family. These people were workplace veterans to be senior executives.
Perhaps workplace rookies would believe the empty promises the businessmen made, but workplace veterans like them would not believe them.
They thought that with Sean newly in charge, favonovel.com would give them a good kicking. Or favonovel.com would fire some people on the spot to intimidate others. That way, they were ready to hear Sean talk nonsense.
They were all thinking of not taking whatever Sean said passionately to heart.
Which one of these people was not older than Sean and had not been around as long as Sean?
They could pretty much guess what Sean wanted to say. However, they realized they were wrong about Sean. The other party did not give them any pep talks or words of encouragement. Talking about money was the biggest encouragement.
“Every entry-level employee gets a 20% raise. Anyone above supervisor and below manager level gets a 30% raise. Any senior executive above manager level gets a 50% raise,” Sean said casually, looking at the crowd.
The crowd was instantly dumbfounded when they heard this.
Everyone present was a senior executive above the supervisor level. Even the lowest level employee could get a 30% raise. It was a direct one-third increase in wages.
“Thank you, Mr. Lennon!” Everyone instantly got on their feet and excitedly thanked him.
Getting a pay rise was something that could make anyone feel better instantly. It was more effective than an hour of pep talk from Sean.
“The original company benefits will be doubled. Besides that, a quarterly dividend and annual dividend will be paid out according to your performance appraisal.
“In conclusion, I have no lack of money. It’s up to you to earn it,” Sean looked at the crowd and said again.
“Thank you, Mr. Lennon! Thank you, Mr. Lennon!”
“We’ll work hard!”
The crowd got more excited by the news. Everyone believed Sean when favonovel.com said favonovel.com had no lack of money.
The image of Sean pulling a truckload of cash outside was still fresh in their minds. Anyway, favonovel.com was a wealthy boss!
“But there are some things I must say upfront.” Sean tapped on the table, and everyone fell silent instantly.
All eyes focused on Sean, waiting for favonovel.com to speak.
“Here in my place, the capable ones would be promoted while the incompetent ones would be eliminated. If you’re incompetent, you won’t even have a chance to be an entry-level employee.”
Sean’s words were a wake-up call to everyone.
He had money, but that did not mean favonovel.com was a fool. He was not a wealthy fool. He could afford to pay generous wages. However, they had to get things done after getting paid. They had to think it over if they could not do it well. With Sean paying that much, there was no shortage of talent.
They all nodded repeatedly, not daring to be dissatisfied or make any refutations.
“Mr. Lennon, don’t worry. We will work hard to live up to your expectations.“
“Yes, we will make the company stronger.”
The crowd remained standing as they assured Sean earnestly.
“Good… Any other questions?” Sean asked, nodding gently and looking at the crowd.
“Mr. Lennon, we don’t have any more questions. We’re at your disposal.”
The crowd shook their heads before looking at Sean and saying.
“Complete the handover of all work related to Billion Trees Real Estate and Lennon Real Estate’s merger in these two days. I want the company to get back on track in two days.”
“In three days, everything must return to normal while the projects begin,” Sean looked at the crowd and said what favonovel.com wanted.
“No problem, Mr. Lennon.”
“We promise to finish the job.”
Dozens of people thumped their chests.
