@et Most people are not going to be notified until later this month., but you should have a meeting with your manager who should go over your performance review and then tell you about your raise (should you be lucky enough to get one).
If you are not lucky, take extra sick days to compensate yourself. 'FU@K this Copmany while you can'

Congrats to those that got anything whatsoever. I've got zilch after year of busting my a-s to meet unrealistic, hard-set release deadlines. So essentially, a pay cut, if I take into account the inflation rate.

Explain the process please, or as someone else asked before specifically for those in quota carrying sales roles have you ever had an increase in your basic?

@et Managers tell you (at least in my experience) and then they add the disclaimer that they had no part in deciding the amount/percentage because they know it not even close to a decent raise.

@hc yes agreed and confirmed, they were average 6% last year and closer to 8% this year

This is more around 2% or nothing some years. This is not a good company.

@OP That's the best joke I have read in a long time. Thanks for that!
The 2% from last year almost covered half the increased cost of living just for groceries (to feed one person--me).

@bt I think the last week of November you will find out about the crumbs they decide to give you, but in true OT form the raise won't be effective until Feb of 27.

@bt, I remember seeing some slide where end of November to early December was mentioned as the time frame for merit increases to be communicated. Most likely it would be early December.

6%? Let’s not ruin a perfectly good rumour with reality.

When is the boss man/woman supposed to inform us ? Or are we expected to learn by just waiting to see what lands in the bank
