Yeah I am owed money from nearly every former employer, even despite ending on amicable terms.
And yeah I've been through negotiating a salary and getting paid a month after starting but it's a fraction and they say oh it's for probation, which should end in 3 months. You figure you can put up with 3 months at half salary, you love the job and jelling with colleagues but that 3 months turns into the max term of 6. Then the stock options you've been told you'll be given once probationary period is over and the salary you negotiated don't appear. You talk to CEO he feigns not to know and says talk to HR despite that these terms were negotiated with him... then HR says I'm already paid way more than some people of equivalent levels and only VPs get stock and go back CEO who is like "what do I know I'm just a CEO"
That happens once, you try again, twice it's just low sample size, keeps happening and you're like... maybe I should work for myself.
