$1000 “Bonus”

I bet they shared this news when they did so they could get rid of a wave of rage-quitters before they hand out their “ever-so-gracious” 1k bonus in January. I know at the end of the year it’ll all even out, but it’s still such cr-p that our paychecks will be shorter on that first check, even with the bridge advance, due to the higher supplemental taxes.


Is it true T 2025 Severance is changing with a Tiered System (1 Month Lev 1 Mgr ?)

Past Severance Patterns
AT&T's severance offerings have varied based on employee classification, years of service, and location. Here's what the data shows:

Management Employees (Non-Bargained)
Standard Package: Previously capped at six months of pay, with two weeks per year worked
2025 Changes: New tiered system offering one month salary for Level 1 managers, with an additional month per level


HBA vs St. Louis

I’m seeing a lot of anti-HBA sentiment on this board. As a leader who has both St Louis and HBA folks on my team, I thought I’d share some insight.

It’s not that great being an HBA. Though there is flexibility, they take a hit on compensation. The merit increases are based on St Louis cost of living. St. Louis is much more affordable than most other metros. So, what that means is HBAs have not seen any real salary increase. Every year, they fall further behind due to their local cost of living.


Pay for Travel

So I am one of the people who was home based before and I guess I have to go to the office now until I find something else. Am I going to make more money? Being HBA means I don't have to pay for gas, daycare expenses for two under 5, even food since I can cook at home. Some companies are paying people in the office more money. Is Jones going to do that? I don't get how this benefits me if not. Still having 60% of the office at home but forcing us to come in makes no sense unless there is a financial benefit.


That time of the year again.

Brandt is once again asking for toys for tots meanwhile we’re all struggling with penny's for raises. Also new people in the same division are being given bonuses when veterans of this place are not? Something’s gotta change. Management has taken a downward turn in the last 10 years. We have greedy clowns running this place. No longer a good place to work. More responsibilities and no compensation. This is bull sh……


No base raise for "Agile Roles" in ET?

Squad leader here in ET. Good shares (>1000), Bonus (~100%) but zero raise. I was told "Abby mandated no base raise for agile roles in ET" but I'm not buying it.

Any squad leads, scrum masters and chapter leads in ET can attest to the contrary?

Even all agiles roles in ET got no raise, we know it's not the case in other BU. So it's most likely from the bean counter Bill.


Strong offer - Do I leave?

I currently have a strong job offer outside of Target (roughly a 20% raise). I work in Supply Chain in HQ. I’m having a hard time deciding if I should just stick it out through this hard period or if I should leave. It’s with a well established Fortune 500 company here in the Twin Cities. How would you evaluate this with Target’s potential in the future? I’m afraid to jump.


So that is why there is no salary raise

Because first we had to spend it on penalty.
Next year, because we had to spend it on restructuring.
Next year, because we were not done with restructuring yet.
Next year, because it was tough year.
Next year, because we need to restructure again.
This year, because we URGENTLY NEED A NEW LOGO and another AI bull...

This is comedy gold


Still no raises for the folks making work work

Xerox Holdings Corp (NASDAQ:XRX) announced the appointment of Chuck Butler as chief financial officer, effective December 3, 2025. The company disclosed the executive change and related compensation adjustments in a statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

In connection with his promotion, Butler’s annual base salary will increase from $500,000 to $550,000. His target annual bonus under the company’s Management Incentive Plan will also rise from 80% to 100% of his base salary. Butler will be eligible for a long-term incentive award in the 2026 annual cycle, with a target grant date fair value of $2 million, and may receive additional long-term incentive awards in future years, subject to board approval.

Butler will receive a monthly housing allowance for 12 months, not to exceed $70,000 in total, and will continue to participate in Xerox’s benefit plans, including executive financial planning assistance and other executive benefit programs.

The filing also states that Butler may enter into a change in control severance agreement with Xerox Holdings. If a change in control occurs before December 31, 2026, and Butler’s employment is terminated without cause or he resigns for good reason within 24 months following the change in control, he will be entitled to a lump sum cash payment equal to two times the sum of his annual base salary and target bonus, as well as continued medical, dental, and vision coverage at active employee rates for up to 18 months, subject to certain conditions.


Left after 10 years

After 10 years with UHC I finally called it quits over a month ago. It's been the most relieving feeling I have ever felt, seriously no lie! The constant changes, being chastised by a big headed manager who did not take accountability for her own faults, and exceeding expectations on MAP review but never reaping the benefits from it. The job that I am at now I make 1.20 less an hour but still make more, make it make sense...where was all my money going. Also my health insurance is so much cheaper and better, I never understood that? Run don't walk if you can, find something that works better for you and your family and also better for you financially.


The Enshitification Will Continue

They aren't going to let up.

Let the decreasing 401k match be a clue as to how RRP and Merit funding will be this year.

By decreasing the 401k match by 1%, they on average TOOK $1,000 dollars from a UHG employee making contributions. Compound that $1,000 over ten years and you're at $15,000 that the company took from you. Now do that every single year. They will keep bending us over and you're a su---r if keep giving this company anything more than 10% of your effort because they sure as heck aren't giving you anything


Cost cuts are everywhere

Layoffs, lean projects, slow attrition, all of it stretching into FY26. Budgets are down across teams, and even if you survive the cuts, raises and bonuses are going to be miniscule or won't even happen. Being kept on doesn’t mean things look brighter for any of us.


Wtf fidelity

0.5% raise AFTER being an exceptional performer????

I got much higher raise when I was SP last year.

Yes the higher bonus was something I expected.

But negligible increment seems like a strategy to keep employee on their toes and live in uncertainty about their future bonus.

My manager seems to be the biggest snake, how the he-l does base pay raise work????
