a gigantic cash bonus that comes every year if you work in the right industry, or an annual disappointment in cash form if you work in the wrong one

at my current shop we got told that the reason we don't get 401k match and have crappy health insurance and don't get any stock options or grants is so that the bonuses can be larger

it's all horseshit of course and i'm awaiting my 10% disappointment

my company does reviews at the end of the fiscal year and then bonuses come shortly into the first quarter.

since you're at the endgame already, have you considered slacking off and not doing anything for the next month and a half, and if someone mentions it say it's because the bonuses are late.

Wanna run with my crew huh? Rule cyberspace and crunch numbers like I do?

Not only do we not get a bonus, but I heard through the grapevine that HR was thinking about eliminating the policy to back-date raises (i.e if you had your annual performance review late feb and it concluded you deserve a raise for the year, they'll pay you the extra for the nearly two months you've worked) because "people get depressed because their paycheck goes back to normal".

That's the closest we get to a "bonus", basically our late pay in one lump sum, and they're thinking about getting rid of it... presumably raises would just take effect in march.

Its a really dinky company.

not backdating raises is incredibly lovely and an excellent incentive for your company to gently caress you over

my favorite is that now that i have the real software dev title they are justifying paying me the salary of a fresh untrained hire despite being here for 5 years and programming continuously for the last 2 by saying "the responsibilities are harder at this level and you have to prove yourself", despite making me spend the last year working on projects that showed i could handle the responsibilities of a full dev. its total bullshit. im 2 weeks away from my sabbatical and then it's time to dish resumes.
