I was so happy to get this today (4/2/2020):
To: 2019 Short-term Incentive (Bonus) Eligible Colleagues
From: Jeff Gennette, Chairman & CEO, Macy’s, Inc.
2019 Short-term Incentive (Bonus) – Payouts Scheduled for April 10, 2020
Dear colleagues,
Over the past several weeks, we’ve taken difficult but necessary decisions that impact our colleagues. One of those was to defer the 2019 Short-term Incentive (bonus). We have re-assessed based on current circumstances and I am pleased to share that we are now able to move forward with payment of the 2019 Short-term Incentive (bonus). These funds will be available to all eligible colleagues on April 10, 2020. I want to thank everyone for their good work in 2019.
2019 Short-term Incentive (bonus) statements will be distributed via My IN-SITE starting April 9, 2020.
With the pace at which we have been dealing with the COVID-19 crisis, 2019 seems like a lifetime ago. But please know that the bonus payout reflects the good work that was done by both individual colleagues and the company in 2019. While much of our strategy is on pause, I do have faith that Macy’s, Inc. will emerge from this crisis ready to compete and win again.
If you have any questions regarding your annual incentive, please contact the Colleague Support Center at XXX-XXX-XXX.
With Respect,
