Executives in the largest companies now receive only around 20% of their renumeration from a salary with the rest made up of 'short and long term performance incentives' and linked to annual bonuses. My pension is now a defined contribution scheme where the risk of benefit shortfall is borne by me and not by my company. Their investment plans do not include an investment in staff loyalty as I might be made redundant soon under the new CEO's plan. We can't all be be high-fliers but we should expect some consideration, we are not items on the balance sheet.

Actually, you are an item on the balance sheet. Several, in fact. Employee payroll, employee healthcare, etc.
Sounds like you would be happier working for a smaller company. Larger companies are like this.

Unfortunately you are just realising that no matter how important or valuable you think you are to your company, you are not. You are just another item or employee number

Interesting statement or was there a question in there somewhere... I think your saying is that the company is giving you the short in of the stick... Welcome to the real world...
