A reply in a different thread has me asking this question. Why exactly do some of you say the review system is fake? They are pretty clear that a limited number of people will get high ratings. "not to exceed 12%" or whatever the verbiage is. So... — read more

Just got “word” of another round of compensation adjustments due sometime in Q4. Let’s hope it’s better than the last round

Anyone else notice a large increase in level 7 senior management with zero management experience. Was it not the point to have level 6 management first?

Is it just me or can anyone else see Malta jobs posted recently?

I hoped that attrition would slow down and that the company would stabilize a bit, but it seems that employees will continue leaving in large numbers for a long time to come?

I’m hearing that everyone (Malta) who usually gets their paycheck deposited this morning isn’t seeing it yet… What’s going on in that HR/Payroll department?!

Been reading some posts on here and bring a counter point. It’s funny, I observe the same people who complain about too much work, not enough people are also the lowest of performers in the company who tend to bask in the tedious day to day status... — read more

Raises will hit for Level 1-5. Rumor is 5% immediately. Job level 6 will get equity options that reach maturity in 2 years. That is at least something for some people. For J6+ enjoy your raise in 2 years. Because you know inflation only hit... — read more

I made a big mistake when I came here. I thought GF was a much better organized company. Turns out this is a big mess. I guess it wasn't so disorganized in the past?
