Bonuses were not that bad for those who did get them. Paid out to a select few cunning linguists, you will know who they are, every business area has them.
For the record, Malta was rubbish and embarrassing and a complete waste of money.
Thanks for the reassurance TK, what a relief! Back to work plebs, nothing to concern yourselves with here ...
What BS. There have been no communications of that sort to SLT members
Where are all the happy clappers not putting Shout Outs for the Malta and SA trips?
Embarrassed? Instructed not to? One of the favoured? Give staff Mushroom treatment?
It's great to see where the money is going, rather than merit rises for staff treated like sh-t.
Roll on when we get sold again, cannot be any worse than this shower of users and takers.
Just want to mention that all who are invited to SA get to bring their partners, because…… well just because - yes I know, because they worked SO hard last year.
Voice connect salesman who recently left was the best we had. Gave the product away for nothing, got his bonus payout, then went to work for the same company supplying the phone system. Oh no, definately all above board and transparant. No doubt some Wimbledon style moves went on there...... back handers, cough, cough
Good luck to them, I've never seen a Sales team more disinterested in making selling anything. In all my time at CDK I never passed a single lead to Sales for a customer that didn't have to be chased up a month later, and then usually multiple times, because nobody had bothered getting back to them. I have absolutely no idea what they did all day.
It is however yet another hallmark sign of a toxic work culture when the Sales guys are getting pampered with flashy holidays and the efforts of the other departments that actually keep the ship running day-to-day go neglected.
Let’s see how many people from Sales and Alliance that will make their target this year and get invited to their special club, if all other departments don’t help them? How many from eg. Engineering and Support do you think have been invited to the SA trip? maybe beside from some leaders of course. From now on, when ever Sales comes asking for help, I don’t have time to help them or Keyloop,,,,,,

Excuse my ignorance, who is Santa? It is hard to keep up with all moves and shakers.
Can you identify by intitials or by any other means.
Thnx
Santa claimed there was an abundance of cheap talent in Poland. In reality the talent was sparse and expensive, and most preferred to stay as contractors. The hugely expensive office remains mostly empty and they are now trying to sublet it. To top it all some m*ron broke their leg going down the kiddy slide too fast😂. The whole venture is an unmitigated disaster.
Santa Claus?
Now that the architect behind “Ki-ling local org, and move all to India and Poland” is leaving the company, we hopefully see a change in strategy, bringing more back more local presence?
They want the customers to leave. They want the business to fail. We near the start of the final push before the business is sold off. Ki-l joy has made his millions, he and others will soon be off. All we can hope for is a half decent payout.
The Ireland market looking shaky for Keyloop also. Blackwater Group already switched to Pinewood, and another 2 of their top 5 groups also looking at it. Interesting times ahead
FP/KLT think they can treat customers/staff like cr*p without consequences. They are more interested in virtue signalling than looking after either. Go woke, go broke.
Here we go, first to jump was McCarthy Group in ZA now Inchcape going elsewhere. Others will follow quickly when it shown you can leave successfully.

They can't even organise correctly spelled awards for their 'star' performers - good job they are all too dim to realise. The person that was given the then award then shows it on LinkedIn. Clowns.
Men in tails celebrating themselves in Malta......in the absence of approval from the market, customers and employees.....cold consolation....
Confused. Is any bonus being paid this year? If so when?
Or has it been spent by the Maltesers?
I know what we should do let’s fly to Malta and celebrate the failure of the business. Spend loads of money on a select few, party, drink and then post loads of sh*te on LinkedIn and other social media. Aren’t we all doing a great job happy clappers. I hate to think what the customers are saying about this shameful leadership.
It's a pleasure to know about the party in Malta, it gives strength to work more and more intensely to those who remained in their place... not to mention the customers who are really enthusiastic about the celebrations paid for with the money raised by the non-existent assistance.
I can not prove anything without blowing my cover. Numbers are rounded to give an idea in what region the alpints are. Btw. You can €100k to the drinks and beer number after Yesterday evening party… But what a party!
For all of you who dares. Ask Alliances and Sales to make their programs for Malta public or ask your colleagues in those departments who their vacation was :) Wonder if Support, PS, Finance etc. gets similar party trips this year..?
At least its bonus time.............
I forgot to get a PO to purchase a torch to see how many are up tk,s @ss.
Lost count, put it this way, there wasn't an echo.
The numbers are made up, the 200K for Malta is probably accurate which seems like a massive waste of money.
The accounts will be submitted to companies house and be available for all to see like any private ltd company
@Please send some more money can those numbers be proven - appear a little toorounded to be accurate
Now they're gaslighting their own employees, virtue signalling on LinkedIn about the 2 'wellbeing' days, when in previous years it's been 4 'picnic' days. Bunch of w@nkers.
Funny how Keyloop have spend their money so far this year…
€200k on drinks and beers in Malta = Ok
€2m on bonus to Senior Leaders =Ok
€500k on business class travel for Senior Leaders around the world = Ok
€1m on external people takling about wellbeing and other topics = Ok
I could easily continue the list, but what would it matter? Wonder if our financial numbers will ever be public? It will probably happend at the same time that i get my PO for a new docking station approved :)
Apparently, CDK is about to outsource jobs to Genpact, more info on this thread: @OP+1lj1t1KM
Just over eighteen months ago the CPO stated that the dealers would be so dependant on their Keyloop DMS that they "wouldn't be able to get out of bed without having to refer to it" has it reached that point yet, if not how long will it be?
Just pointing out how deluded these people were and are.
The situation is starting to get heavy........ hold on!!! .........Sell your life dearly!!!
Top heavy with clueless money grabbing fools. Don't understand the industry, their people and the customers and they don't care one jot. Only there to make their millions and swan off with blood on their hands.
Being top heavy with middle management is the number one sign of a failing business
VV
Sorry for a question.....but how many managers, directors, team leaders exist in this company? and how many meetings, phone calls, webinars........ but who is operational and works is the minority of employees?? there is something wrong....
I will be back soon
The recent one that has been deleted contained a name.
Interesting that posts are being deleted again. Never saw anything written on posts to break forum rules.
Unless one works for an organisation that is working to achieve serious and profound changes to make society or the world a better place, the most important part of one's life is most categorically not the hours one spends stuck behind a desk. Quite the opposite old bean.
The least important part of life is that spent at work, time with friends and family is infinity more important and valuable, no matter how good the employer (and my new one shows Keyloop for the liars they are).
