#bonus

New to Optum this year. No idea what to expect for a bonus. Target is 15%. Any leaders willing to share their thoughts on what I should expect so I’m not disappointed?

No difference between SP and EP really. Got EP this year and received same number of shares, bonus is an extra 1k and pay increase extra 1 %. Cr-p!

I got the email. I am a high performer so it was not based on that. I suspect the offer is age based to get rid of the high salary folks. I am 62.
Exit date May 31 2026.
Depending on your level 8 - 26 weeks severance (26 weeks is VP level).
RSU - an additional year of vesting.
2026 Bonus will be pro-rated.
30 days continuation Medical
18 Months Subsidized Cobra (you pay what an employee pays).

Thought might be useful info, so bumping the post up. OP: @aq+1kbjqa3b6

So this is why all the cabinets were getting stuffed.

Me and some peers I talked to in wealth got no pay raises because of the pending changes and role clarification. I feel like they’re signaling a lay off by giving no raises. Got decent bonuses and shares though

Got a "first and final" warning about Connect Week attendance today, specifically time spent in office rather than badging in and out. And no bonus for me this year as a result. Pretty floored although I guess it's better than being fired with no warning? Am I the only one?

Are we done with this year? When is the next layoff scheduled? After Q1 result or later?

Wasting so much money on useless things and then not even paying full bonus. BD ranks number one among shi*tty companies.

If you make a lateral move, does your pay remain the same? Does bonus % change? Not sure if anyone here has experience, but considering applying to an adjacent role (Currently a Senior System Analyst) but the role I'm looking to apply is a regular System analyst. Not sure what that would mean pay wise. Does everyone at TIAA get the same bonus %?

no bonus this year?

That's right, when you worked hard all year and you find out the execs made great bonuses and you got less that the cost of living increase. And that's IF you got anything at all.
So nice to work for a company where every year you stay with them, you fall further behind in your pay.
Not interested in the bleeding hearts that parrot the execs saying you can always leave if you don't like it, because the truth is many can't find other jobs in their areas of the country.
So, may God help birds cr-p on all the execs who don't stand up for their employees.

Does anyone know if maintaining a 3 day average in 2025 will impact bonus/ratings this cycle? If I had to guess I was at a 2.8 for several months. Not sure how this will play out end of year. Any insight?

I was in a 2 months non-working notice, and my last day was October 28. I read previous posts and some indicated they had received their prorated bonus on final paycheck. My last paycheck did not have any bonus. Any suggestions on how to escalate this with the HR? My former manager is non responsive. Thanks!

Any confirmation if managers got the okay to stell associates?

Another article about CVS fraud. Paying out millions in a lawsuit AGAIN. When does it stop? As an employee, I want a ridiculously large bonus and raise in 2026. They shove fraud and abuse classes down our throats in the learning center yet here we are once again having to deal with the repercussions of this company being fraudulent. Somebody is not taking these classes. It's affecting our stock and I'm sure the bottom line numbers.

PL here. If you are a legacy Schwab employee you need to know that you are getting sc--wed badly on your bonus. Your TDA colleagues (that are peers to you) have a much higher bonus percentage (5%+ more). When Schwab switched all legacy blue employees to the percentage based scale a few years back, they maintained status quo with whatever your bonus amount was at the time. The green employees who were already on a percentage based bonus at TDA got to keep their percentage level which means that ALL of them are getting more bonus than their peers on the blue side. Schwab should feel embarrassed and ashamed that they allowed a disgusting discrepancy like this to occur, but NOTHING has been done to correct it for years now. Take this for what it's worth, but Schwab really does not care about you.

AI promises were made that it’d save TONS of $ and it has not. Now is the time to pay the piper and there are shareholder expectations to be met. They are expecting lots of cheddar on the promises made. So, you have to recoup that money from somewhere.
Lay people off + a reduction in force by way of attrition. Turn up the heat, pile on the work and watch people leave which is a big win so that you don’t have to pay out severance.

The best part that is that Jane still gets her extra 20+ million $ bonus….again. As far as Citi upper echelon is concerned, all is right with the world.

I'll admit it, I was a denier...it rubbed me the wrong way...then I started to realize that it was ME that was ruining the company. Forgive me ML...I'll be better and THEN we'll get this stock back to $200 so you and your family can vacation in Switzerland while I stick around and make you richer! Truly blessed

Who got there bonuses and cut and ran?

Any word when either date will be?

Based on my experiences in Australia, bonuses are not merit based but essentially based on how well you get along with your boss. They can make all your hard work and outcomes achieved throughout the year meaningless. They dictate your year end review and also what salary increase and bonus to put forward for you.

I think they also play favourites as in a way they have a certain budget to work with for the team. Give more to brown nosers and less to associates they don’t like.

Lesson - at a company like this, it’s not about producing grade A product and being a grade A colleague. It’s about kissing A.

They’re gonna be about half of what they usually are. Blame Ron.

This is in addition to the 9 weeks in lieu of redeployment payment

Starting an anonymous comp thread.
Not because I’m passionate about it — just because it felt like one of those things where everyone’s waiting for someone else to go first.

Curious to see what patterns people are seeing this cycle.
Not looking for exact numbers — just trying to understand whether this year felt normal… or “normal.”

Take a step back and look at how Humana treats employees ZERO bonuses

Can someone explain to me how the bonus calendar works?

Do you get a portion of it? Also.... what about the other way around? If a teammate leaves before May, does their portion of bonus money get split amongst the rest of the team at the manager's discretion?

Currently debating on ducking out before AIP payouts for another opportunity but wanted to see what the this year's multiplier is looking like before making that decision. Was told the past few years were set at 60% for people who "meet expectations" and 75% for high achievers- given our stock price split in half wasn't expecting miracles but still want go be informed.

Could some of you help me with what I can actually expected to receive after my last date of 12/19 in Ga office? I see a specific amount calculated by my total comp divided by years of serviced and then multiple by two.

Will I receive any of the following in addition to that?
1) Vacation days paid out?
2) Current Stock together un-vested amount?
3) 2025 STI?

Thank you.

Im thankful for this weeks check had a nice bonus in it this week. I am thankful i joined the union 26 years ago and did not sway. I am thankfull for a no layoff clause thank you cwa

How is bonus distributed? Do managers get a lump sum and asked to share amongst his team?

It is clear that management is trying to nix any amount they can from annual compensation bonus payouts (which frankly I look at as deferred salary for doing your job) to cut costs if you add any value to this company or not.

Not exactly a well thought out way to motivate staff to go above and beyond or retain anyone worth retaining, perhaps I need to focus on getting my “paper right”…how can we in this environment!

Does anybody know if we get to retain our bonus that doesn’t vest until June 2028 after we are displaced?

I understand the calibration and stuff.
But are the ratings finalized, or is it going to be finalized end of January , close to bonus day.

Came in as a G12 employee through a Cisco acquisition. The first year was simply aligning the base pay and bonus to match Cisco. The second year, got full 18% bonus, $45K RSU but no base pay increase.

How is Cisco with G12 comp? Are there annual RSU refreshers and/or base pay increases?

I've also seen posts about how G12 are generally at a higher risk for layoffs. With the company pushing for margins it's making me anxious.

I was let go in June and wonder if there's still potential to receive a pro-rated bonus for 2025. Manager discretion aside, is there a required minimum number of months of employment to be bonus eligible? TIA.
