Anyone in service heard if the performance trip is still planned for this year? If so has there been any talk as to which location? I'm hoping it will be the Bahamas again this year. Florida was nice too.

Well they did say we were unaffected by retail's chapter 11 guess it's starting to show. A bunch of us got raises in our district after the BF. I still don't trust sears for some reason
Retail is separate in that aspect, no hard feelings but yes the trip is still on. Just spoke with a higher up friend of mine. Dunno where yet cause they haven't decided but heard you gotta hit all the incentives and be in the top 100 techs in the nation. Good luck!
But nothing as far as food for thanksgiving day for the people that worked! Yeah sounds about right
Sounds like there's plenty in the budget for a performance trip!
Bankrupt Sears wants to give executives up to $25 million in bonuses
https://www.cnn.com/2018/11/16/business/sears-executive-bonuses/index.html
Sears is seeking court approval to pay executives as much as $25 million in annual bonuses while the company struggles to restructure in bankruptcy.
Three top executives could get nearly $1 million each if the company goes out of business. If Sears remains in business, they could get nearly $500,000 each for hitting the top performance targets.
Sears filed two different types of bonus plans in bankruptcy court Thursday. The first is for the top 18 "key" executives, who would collectively get as much as $2.1 million per quarter up to a maximum of $8.5 million. The bonuses would only be paid in full if Sears reaches its cash-flow targets. Sears Holdings, which includes both Sears and Kmart, has been burning through cash at a rate of about $125 million a month.
A second retention bonus plan was designed to encourage 322 other unnamed executives to stay put during Sears' reorganization. They would collectively get $16.9 million over the course of a year, which works out to an average of about $52,000 annually per executive. No executive could receive more the $150,000 in bonuses for staying with the company during the bankruptcy process.
