Bonus and Raise 2023

Grade / Box / Bonus / Raise. Should start coming out today. Post what you got.

Salary midpoints only moved 2%. :(

Based on the HR discussion that we had today, it looks like another stingy raise is in store. Why is leadership surprised by the attrition rate, especially around April.

Year end bonus for 98% of employees

CEO announced a one time $5,000 year end bonus for 98% of the employees that are below grade 15. Nice gesture but its probably because they are going to cheap out on raises AGAIN. Hard to take anything they do at face value, always a seed of doubt... — read more

No more high hopes

It took me a long time to understand that this place will not change for the better. The whole time I hoped that some improvement would happen. Now I'm just wondering what will happen next to make things worse for good employees here...

Bull$hi

Stuck in the past

In most things, this company is stuck in the past. I wonder why that is? Is the reason that there is no vision? Is the reason that the leadership considers changes for the better too risky?

Middle Management issues rampant

No one cares to hire leaders, only followers. Shocking that the followers lack in understanding how to be a leader. There is no development. I think the talent pool issue stems from middle management inadequacy. When you can’t cultivate or... — read more
