#pay

Big layoffs planned for end of March. Happening before pay increases take effect.

If I take PTO leading up to my last day and return my badge, laptop, and other equipment before that PTO starts, will I still be paid for those PTO days, or would my access be deactivated immediately and my pay stop at that point?

The scam continues with a 2026 pay raise less than inflation. Inflation caused by Aramco’s buddies to the north. In the last 10 years that leaves only 1, 2024, where Ali and the scammers beat inflation with a decent pay raise. Do yourself a favor if you’re still there and figure how much your salary has decreased when factoring inflation. And for anyone considering moving to the Toxic environment, offered both indoors and outdoors (worst air quality in the world), think about an avg 1-3% annual raise before stepping on the plane to the land of empty quarters…and empty promises.

Is it true, if you get a promotion (going from p2 to p3 let’s say) and your salary is already in the p3 band, you will not get a raise?

Staff have been awarded a 4.8% pay rise, backdated to 1 January, and a further 0.75% from 1 October.
DXC STAFF - 0% and lies for a year

BAE STAFF - Staff have been awarded a 4.8% pay rise, backdated to 1 January, and a further 0.75% from 1 October.

All staff will additionally receive an additional day of annual leave while Unite members will get a one-off further day's leave.
All staff are due to receive a one-off £500 and a half-hour earlier finish time each day.

Some managers here know exactly what they're doing. They tear at you until you're too tired and too unsure to leave. They make you feel lucky to have the job so you'll keep accepting low pay and bad treatment. It's a strategy.

Especially since they cut the perks at work :(

Very few job title bands. So I’m hoping when a promotion finally happens the pay rise is in the larger side. Is this true?

Those who have had their pay rose discussions, how are the %s?

My partial CIP arrived in my bank account overnight. This is after an AEOI last year. No sign of a paystub though, and I expect that will arrive via snail mail.

The uplifts were supposed to be in the March pay.

Has anybody heard from Raul and his gang of liars?

What's with some people getting 3% and others getting 3.5% for same grade ?

I talked to a coworker recently who said the pay increases in the past were retroactively paid out, going back to the beginning of the year. Is that true?

and it's actually 100% like they said after the earnings call, so at least this is coming in next week

Is 3% the standard compensation this year?

Pay equity? That's a massive raise for the CEO and "meaningful increases" for low-mid rank salaries, but 2 years of 0% awards for director level and above.

HR said to focus on total comp but oh dear what's that you say cumulative inflation since Covid is nearly 30%? No time for any more questions I'm afraid.

From the time TIAA received my paperwork in good order until the time they transferred the money out, it took over 35 days. Like, wtf? Shouldn’t the more than a few days. What goes on?

Anyone know what percentage pay increases are this year in Wexford and Wilmslow ?

When will the perfect attendance payout take place ? Its usually sometime in march earn a weeks pay for no sick time yeah its a thing

After withholdings and deductions, the base increase indeed feels like "peanut butter" sized. It's hardly there at all. Meanwhile, Mr. Shart gave himself a handsome 28% raise.

New comp for retail is coming… it’ll be announced next week but they’re doing away with strategic multiplier and solely relying on bucket dollars. Reps and ASM at risk will go up but no chance for Sr Mgr or Dir… kinda feel like they want us to quit before they have to fire us.

Someone said it’s prepping for a structure of 2 ASMs in each store and that’s it.

Who else knows???

If you do t complain about pay they won’t do anything. Say you’ll leave. This is the only way it gets better

$80 an hour, can I take unpaid time off? What is the process

After numerous promises by different leaders across 2025 has anybody heard anything?

Getting word that layoffs will be ramping up before corporate bonuses are set to be announced and paid out. If you are let go before the bonus actually hits your direct deposit, then you will get absolutely nothing for enduring last year. Heads up and brace yourself for once again another large round of layoffs. Meanwhile, all the VPs and above are getting extra perks their way (trips, special luxury gifts, stock).
Additionally, if you are fortunate enough to stay, your annual compensation review will probably be on existing since they’ve forced all management to not give high employee reviews to prevent low incentive increase and lowest bonus payouts.

Rumors are circulating that our CEO BM is planning a 10% salary increase for all employees. While not yet confirmed, the potential raise has sparked excitement and speculation across the company. Woo hoo!!!

Or do you just normally keep your current salary/bonus?

I see the salary range posted on Workday, not sure if the recruiter would ask for salary requirements beforehand.

Anyone have any experience with this?

I think it's worth simplifying the story what is actually being investigated by the SEC. Basically, in March 2025 Gotham City Research accused Kyndryl and namely CEO & chairman Martin Schroeter of major issues surrounding cash flow. Firstly, it is important to note that Martin, as chairman, created a pay package for himself based mostly on the metric of free cash. Over 50% of his compensation is based on free cash. Since the report came out almost a year ago, Martin cannot claim ignorance.

So, what is free cash? Free cash is essentially the extra spending money a business has. So, they are free to use it as they please.

Now, the issues are that Kyndryl was sure doing a lot of gymnastics to inflate this number.

One allegation is that Kyndryl sold receivables to the bank and called that "revenue". Receivables are essentially IOUs for one-time payments. Kyndryl sold those to the bank and made it look like these loans are recurring revenue.

The allegations that the SEC are investigating also stem from the Gotham City report. This allegation says Kyndryl aggressively timed vendor payments to increase cash holdings and called that cash "free". This is like showing your spouse how much "spending money" you have in your bank account but failing to tell them you have that money because you missed your house payments. They have admitted to abnormalities in delaying vendor payments between quarters, which means they were punting expenses into away to call the cash to pay those expenses "free cash". That is clearly fraud.

Recently, Kyndryl, upon disclosing this information fired their CFO and general counsel, while claiming these two executives were not transparent with the CEO or the board. However, Kyndryl has decided NOT to let CEO Martin Schroeter lead any remediation plan, which will instead be led by the brand new interim CFO and interim general counsel. This is an obvious break showing they don't think shareholders trust Martin anymore.

Basically, if these allegations prove true, Martin will have to argue in court that he was an oblivious id--t instead of a criminal.

I cannot find anywhere that says you have to return to work for a certain amount of time after parental bonding leave in order to keep the pay. Can anyone confirm this? US

Still hungover

I know many of us have opinions...

Post your $ figure here chat. Are we cooked?

Remember the Pay for Performance statement? Them were the days! You could see well in advance your AIP and the date it was being deposited. At this point so far into February, I am not even sure we are getting AIP this year. And no, trolls, I am not betting the farm on AIP or planning on a single cent. I just realized we had not received it yet and in the good old days we always had it first week of February. RIP Pay for Performance statement, I made fun of you at the time, but now I realize you were actually good transparency. Don't even get me started on the olden era of quarterly profit sharing. I am still going down with this ship, but have to marvel nearly daily how Good to Great has gone from Great to Ghastly.

What are we seeing…

The dysfunction here got so bad I had no choice but to leave. Best decision I ever made. Found a place that actually respects its people and pays decently. So weird to say thanks to Waters, but the push was exactly what I needed.

It’s wild to think how many jobs could be saved if his pay matched his actual value. We’re talking tens of millions that could’ve kept real people employed.
