The no bonus/ increase plan is clearly on flagscape if you search for the incorrectly named Pay for Performance topic. Why was this never communicated to employees? Why work people into the ground and then tell them no pay raise or bonus. It’s beyond... — read more
Never sell short your backbone
A cut on routine increase for earners 100k+ would be significant for the bank if aggressive cost cutting measures are in place. Very ignorant is the call to eliminate routine increase for those working below that in a high inflation economy. This a... — read more

Manager discretion in bonus
Can anyone elaborate on how much managers can influence cast bonuses? Some have suggested that it's largely out of their control. Is that in relation to the bonus pool or how the bonus pool is allocated amongst the team? Two years in a row now... — read more
