You're literally foregoing pay for time off so that the MSP owner can have a bigger paycheck.
You should be thinking about this each and every time you look at what you make for what you do. All they did was get an agreement signed (probably) and you're doing a giant portion of the work. Their cut should be proportionally miniscule for the labor given... but instead I can promise that for every buck you make them with billable hours you are probably making 25 cents or less... and then they have the flat fee contract on top of it that they are pocketing as well.
I mean that's 100% how for profit companies are unfortunately. I make enough to be comfortable and I'm respected and treated fairly compared to every other place I've worked. I'm not unhappy here, yet. And I hope I won't ever become unhappy here, but company growth can change people. I'm out at the first bit of toxicity. Well toxicity that isn't inherent to for profit shit. If that makes sense. Right now, they're good people compared to every employer I've had and everyone I talk to about this place tells me to stay because this place is genuinely good. I just hope that the promotion they're hinting at giving me next year isn't just something they're waving over my head.
