Team,
As many of you know, we are navigating an unprecedented convergence of commodity headwinds. Aluminum prices have skyrocketed. Diesel remains stubbornly uncontrollable. Inflation continues, regrettably, to inflate.
In light of these macro realities, we are making a few adjustments that we're confident will bring us closer together as a family.
Compensation: There will be no raises this year. We know you understand.
Effort: We need everyone to work significantly harder. To be clear, this is not related to the compensation update above.
Travel: Effective immediately, all business travel is suspended. To support this, we need each of you to travel to the office. In person. Regularly.
We recognize many of you accepted remote roles and relocated based on our assurance that you could live wherever you liked. We stand by that. You can still live there. You just need to be here.
Vehicles: To help with that commute, we are reclaiming the company vehicles provided when you accepted your roles.
Every one of these decisions was made with a single goal in mind: helping you become an even better employee of the company you love.
Thank you for your continued sacrifice. We truly couldn't do this without you. Literally.
