A single late salary payment (even by a day) is code red to jump ship.
Regardless of any excuses or reasons they give you –
This kills every employee’s trust in the company at once.
Even if it wasn’t fucked before, it is now.
(And if a company that wasn’t already fucked decides to pay salaries late for any reason, then whoever is in charge is such a colossal idiot, it’ll be fucked soon anyway.)
The only time I’ve had a late salary payment, it was because of an issue with the vendor that was fixed within a day or two.
I’m willing to cut my employer a little slack when the process fucks up and they’re johnny on the spot letting you know and giving a timeline. You tell me that there’s a delay because of funds or lazy fuckery, I’m looking for a new job asap.
