Review from HR Dept

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

I was originally hired under the promise of being a full-time employee, and have since had multiple check-ins to confirm that those preferences are still accurate. My preferences have stayed the same, but I am consistently shorted the hours needed to be full-time due to lack of schedule consistency.
