@gf ahhh the old 'infidelity' parties. The stuff of legends
@gf famous quote from my first boss here. “Go ahead and put your pen in company ink. IDGAF. It’s your career not mine.”
Simpler times.
@g7 Years ago one of my original senior managers used to say "gentlemen, if you're going to stick your d**k in someone at the party make sure the're not in my reporting tree'. Simpler times!
It's a pass for me regarding the holiday party. It's in the middle of the week and in an inconvenient location. I've gone in the past and the after parties are what's fun but either the next day is a real struggle or you're burning a PTO day.
@cn I stopped going years ago when people started showing up in jeans and t shirts and the food quality fell off the cliff. My wife always called it the infidelity oarty because spouses weren’t invited and yeah, there was hanky lanky afoot.
the peanut size quantity of food in the cafeteria with lousy left over liq-or is what you will get for christmas party , perk staying at work after 5pm, 10k+ will congregate and identify how to increase their pay and bonus
@d4 what type of role and in what business unit? Has me paranoid.
Don't say Boston Dev Ops or I'll call the Chairman's Line. 🤪
@d4 I think you meant connect week non-compliant but I understood. How non-compliant? Because 30% my bonus seems a good trade-off to WFH seeing as how it’s costing me $5 - $8k a year in extra taxes and fuel costs anyway.
@d4 why such an outlier? What did they do "wrong?"
I've stopped attending any corporate social events. Even before RTO was announced the old fun was gone out of them. Most associates I know now don't want to be around work colleagues for anything more than the required water cooler greetings.
It's a shame. There used to be such a great vibe around the company.
@d4 does HR come in and explain this to the associate? I think I know the answer, but curious how hard this can be challenged by the associate.
My SPs are getting between 95 and 110% of the funded bonus. I have one person who was SP and non-connect week compliant and they are getting 70% of the funded bonus - I had no control over that one, HR swooped in and changed the number on me
Holiday party in the cafeteria on a Friday starting at 5:30. More perks of RTO.
My uneducated guess on funding is that it will be between 97% and 100% with most SPs getting about 84% of that.
A pat on the back is what I’m expecting.
