They never seem to care that much. They'd bump my pay, but that was it.

I have once said I couldn't develop a proposed solution, as it was too 
complex, and that they should get someone else. They kept bullying me to 
do it for days, I thought I was going to get fired.

In the end, they did get someone else, project failed, he was fired. I 
was then given carte blanche to deliver "something".
