#bonus

Usually there is an email sent out around this time of year for progress on Success Bonus. If green or yellow or whatever. Anyone seen it? Any word from the suits on our bonus?

Long story short, I'm an L4 - Community, Gender-Expansive, Kinship - Analyst. Thankfully, I survived the blood bath and still have my job.

Does anyone know what the implications are for the bonuses? Are we still going to get the full amount or are they cutting that too?

Thanks!

I assume the restricted stock bonus is gonna go away once you’re laid off. Is this true?

The first Monday of November is when layoffs were done the last 2 years. That allows your employment to extend into the following year and you get the annual bonus.

Heard a rumor that there will be no base pay raises for scrum masters or squad leaders this year and very limited availability of shares for both regardless of grade level. Anyone hearing the same?

I can’t live in fear till January and work like a dog every day. Sick and tired of training TII knowing that they will take my job.

We can’t f*cking accelerate if half my team including some high performers are laid off (probably because they were remote)

If I make it beyond April, there is no way I will get more than 50% of bonus and 2% hike in salary.

And this is not the Target I know for the last 15 years. We neither caring, nor growing and definitely not winning. Our culture is a sham.

Most of these people were let go

The finance guy will be working us to our bones and then lay us off after peak.

I received an offer as a Full-Stack Senior Associate on the Global Collateral Management Platform called access edge. Is this a good platform to work on?

I have a few years of experience as a full-stack engineer but was laid off so I need a job. I found this forum and it scared me a bit.

What salary is typical for a senior associate in PA or FL? I'm able to pick between the two locations. Not sure if my offer is low or I was just expecting more. No mention of a bonus. is there a bonus for senior associate engineers?

If you were let go yesterday so you get your 401k match or bonus? I almost think they did it yesterday so they don't have to pay those 2 out. Thoughts?

Some people are eligible for the annual bonus and others aren’t. Does anyone know why?
As for the Warn notice, aren’t they supposed to pay extra for this?

Word is some who survived in NY Corporate got retention bonuses basically saying they will be laid off in the future. If you’re in Corp NY make sure you get a piece of that pie !

Will the layoffs have any affect for the annual bonuses the rest of us still in the company get next year?

Would be nice to have on top of severance, its so close to the end of the year.

Do you know if severance includes a prorated bonus (even if the planned bonus incentive is 50 percent this year)? Also - does anyone know if it will be pay through Jan 3rd and then 6 weeks + 1 week per year of service? Or just pay through Jan 3rd and 1 week per year of service?

Man if anyone thought the results were bad this year wait until next year! Chances of any of us getting a bonus this year, highly unlikely.

I am hearing different views on this. While he has been given a retention bonus, word is that Dan is catching up to the fact that Sampath was the one who was supposed to turn Consumer group around and has not been able to do that. In fact he has misfired a few strategic moves. What do you all think. Sampath is gonna survive or……?!?!?

Will managers or directors will also get the prorated bonus or it's only VP and above?

General update: US Silica was purchased by the Apollo Group ("wealth management firm") in August 2024.
Almost immediately layoffs in the corporate structure (not surpising, given a buyout)
Company is now ULTRA focused on cash - so very little capital spending, really digging into every bit of money spent.
Rumor is that they're trying to sell the Oil & Gas plants.
ISP - They laid off all of the mining employees at the Lovelock, NV plant. (Most of them got rehired by the contractor that they hired to run the mine now.) Several plant employees also laid off, not sure how many.
Decisions being made at the corporate level without regard/knowledge of how the DE plants run are going to make it impossible to keep the plants open. Orders in general on the DE side have been low since Nov 2024.
I'd stay away from US Silica. They also have a history of laying people off right after performance reviews (in November) . That way they don't have to pay any bonuses, since you have to be employed in March of the next year to collect the bonus from the year before.

602 here working in back office in CIB. Mid salary range, what can I expect for my annual raise and bonus?

Without going into the discussion of how the bonus su-ks at the bank, can some knowledgeable folks tell me until what date I should be working to be eligible for the bonus — 12/31/2025 or the actual payout date in 2026?

Before Edward Jones started handing out pink slips and demotions like candy, there was supposed to be a real conversation about pay. Leadership told us they were reviewing pay grades firmwide and that the process would take about a year.

Instead of following through, they turned around and started firing people. Just empty smiles and “tough decisions.” And now everyone seems to have forgotten the original issue. We’re still the lowest paid people in the entire finance sector. That’s the part they don’t talk about in the press releases.

They didn’t fix the pay ranges. They buried it under layoffs, reorgs, and canned speeches about “efficiency.” The truth is simple: this company had a choice between paying its people fairly or protecting its executive bonuses. And they made their choice loud and clear.

How can these people sleep at night?

AI chatbot told me, when I put in my particulars, that the gains foregone from the switch to annual match from quarterly we used to have is about $1,500, since missing out on getting money in during the lower levels throughout the this year, assuming S&P closes out the year at current level. Thanks Charlie, and the "special award" ain't gonna make up for it, even if we're around for it to vest. Especially given the big lump that would have matched Q1 on the bonus period contribution. And most companies match per pay period, so annual is a real stiffing.

Greed has no limits. Get rid of hardworking workers and make it hard for them to get roof over their head and food on the table while greedy executives splurge on expensive caviar and champagne. So much for board independence.

Can someone share light on what are the bonuses for the marketing team at Wealth and IM? When I joined HR said it is anywhere from 30-55% of your base salary. I joined as SVP of product marketing from big asset management firm and we used to get only 20% so was surprised that the bonus range was so high? Also, when do they payout your bonuses?

Has anyone heard news
of corp bonus payout timing and/or percentage?

Mechanical Engineer for Chevron of 5 years here in the Permian Basin, I make $152K base plus an additional 10% increase off that for living in Midland,TX and my bonus every year is around 45K, looking at the posts here it seems Exxon is just as Toxic as Chevron, but how is the pay since I heard y'all don't get bonuses?

Loved how on yesterday’s internal earnings call Stank opened up with T missing its cashflow plan so bonuses may be impacted. Seriously? You can’t manage cashflow so make the employees pay? Also loved the comment about using corporate tax reductions for “other purposes”.

Stank - it’s time to go.

Lo

This company is pure garbage. I've never witnessed such a debacle in my life. Everything about it is toxic, the commercials, the service, the agents, the cr-p workforce and leadership. I talked to a customer recently that said the same thing and said it appears we are only interested advertising stupid commercials, putting our name on stadiums, stupid Bateman commercials, and paying Patrick Mahomes more money. She said after 30 years with SF she is moving all of their policies because we have become like every other company and could care less about the customer and its employees. She said that she could tell everyone she spoke to sounded absolutely miserable and hated their jobs. She had heard MT got a $24 million dollar bonus while she is getting a 17% rate hike. I couldn't say a word but she couldn't have been more right! Place is a sh-t hole!

If they are going to treat exempt staff like hourly employees, threatening to hurt our review and bonus, i want my overpay time pay, i work weekends and sometimes 10 hr days. If they in anyway try and threaten us i would demand to see the data, for us compared to others. I don't know what WF Legal is thinking following directions from Bridget Engle, she doesn't even have a college degree. Their legal team better be ready because there's some hungry down and dirty lawyers who would LOVE to sue the living day lights out of this place and i will be calling them up if i'm in anyway shape or form impacted by some stupid 8 hr rule.

Asking for a friend.🐄🤠

Remember when CK claimed he would invest more in India, and now we’re facing layoffs instead? The board seems to be in a comfortable position, making decisions without any real accountability. A decade ago, it would have been unthinkable for them to alter performance measurement or halt a program like MOVE SAP, but now they can do so without challenge. Their only apparent strategy is to use layoffs as a tool to boost stock prices, showing a lack of genuine direction in their actions.

Meanwhile, Germany is experiencing significant political shifts, with the AFD gaining traction and many citizens expressing frustration over the representation of non-Western individuals in various roles. This discontent is not rooted in racism but rather in a sense of lost opportunities and stagnant wages.

CK and his board seem to be aligning themselves with the AFD, likely hoping for increased bonuses under their potential leadership, while they continue to earn far more than the average SAP employee. What are your thoughts? Should we advocate for a salary cut and no bonus for CK and the board? How do we go about it? Should we have a general strike?

Has anyone heard any rumors related to 2025 bonus pool? There are a ton of meetings related to reductions of budgets, almost like a last minute scramble to cut costs. Maybe we should have subleased Frisco and ramped up remote work?

Another big beautiful LR is in the works?!!?? HR is singing their happy songs and internal leadership is buzzing with excitement as they get to destroy more lives just in time for the holidays! Oh happy happy joy joy, but when will Chuck Robbins and his gang of merry Indian H1-B Visa dwarfs get the axe? Instead they get big bonuses and promotions. While American citizens get stomped on again by Cisco.

What exactly does the severance include and is there a max? Is it 2 weeks for every year of service? What’s the max amount of weeks they’ll give? 50? Do they also give bonus and stocks?

I joined BNY in Lake Mary this year as an associate full stack engineer. Got a "meets expectations" during my mid year. Will I be an easy target for the 25% of employees that are being marked as "below expectations" for the end of year?

On the other side, how are bonuses if I get a meets or exceeds? I've heard $1000, 1500, and $3,000 from others I work with.

He thanks everyone for an incredible year and all the hard work.

He also says not everyone will receive their full, earned bonus. Some will; others will receive less.

Let me put this plainly, Mr Chief Executive: if employees receive anything under 100% of their earned bonuses, we will lose critical talent with irreplaceable institutional knowledge—losses compounded by past redundancies. They’ll vote with their feet.

Others may stay on, but if they’re paid only 60% of their bonus, expect about 60% effort going forward. Think very carefully about the next move, PD. Can Avaya really afford to lose more legacy talent? Won’t that hobble the plans you and the Board have—plans that reward specific leaders with bonuses tied to a single target?

Think. Very. Carefully.

1. What bonus percentage (as a % of your base salary) do you expect for the end-of-year payout?

0-5%
6-10%
11-15%
16-20%
More than 20%
No bonus expected
Not applicable (e.g., not eligible for bonuses)

1. What pay increase percentage do you anticipate for the next performance review cycle (e.g., 2026 base salary adjustment)?

0-2%
3-5%
6-8%
9-10%
More than 10%

People are rumbling at the support center about a change in bonus, making it a long-term incentive or something like that. Does anyone have a communication summary on that? I think it only went to Sr. Managers and up.

Have anyone got the bonus package yet or heard what % it is

Don't forget everyone, its national bosses day. While employees are faced with WFRs, little to no raises, no promotions, evolving job responsibilitiesand last years RSU bonuses are worth considerably less than what they were issued at. Make sure to give your boss a thank you.
