Such a nice gesture for China to have mid year salary adjustment. LCM, any chance for SG?

Your job ….. our jobs, will not be guaranteed, at least over the next 2-3 years forward.
If you think that the SG country study is done and over with and the (low) hit rate was just that few hundred people who had been severed / asked to go ….. how wrong you are!
The whole TMTS headcount reduction plan has just been put in motion and the 3-year forecast (2021, through 2023) is to have further headcount reductions and reorganisational “optimisations” made. So there’s much more work ahead to further loadshed, with or without parallel attrition - although the latter would help the process.

If the company is paying fairly, why is there a need for the ops tech to do grab food on free days. There’s just too much financial insecurity.
Ops tech doing grabfood on off days lately, riding their luck. Better don't get NSI for this, you are supposed to REST.
@4rbpr+16zEvLP3
I am not even sure if many can last 5-10 years.
Don’t forget that with 2 strikes of PIP, given over consecutive years and you are out!
With the 8% NSI...we are all on a 1 year contract. You may survive this round, but what about the next? or 5 years later? 10 years later? Imagine in your 40s or 50s getting NSI....you are Fuked both ways...too old to leave and no one is going to "help" you improve due to your age.
To the wise ones, time to get the he-l out..before it is too late.
This company is turning into a sh--e show...alot of "leaders" (Dept head and above) still around..looking for the next person to load up excess work.
while the engineers / people who do real work are leaving in loads
There’s no mid cycle increment. Unlike China, we still have too many people onboard. Yes, there’s already a lot of work with not enough bodies. However, based on the planners, the departures are baked in the plan and expected. You really need attrition to hit firmly in high double digits percentages before there’s any mid cycle action.
Otherwise it’s really another pay freeze for 2022 and potential AWS cut. Good luck all staying
Mid year increment? If there is then this company sucks at strategy planning can’t even commit to what they had announced or implemented.
@4rcpq+16zEvLP3 ---wow..great motivation..now EM employees whom we hired because they are of high calibre got to be contented with just having a job ....in EM...
Sounds like someone who have no skillset to leave EM and is trying to rationalise why he/she cant leave.
Be blessed that we still have a job. And with the 3 mths AWS no official announcement that it will be cut, that shld motivate us during these trying times. Just think of those who were laid off and got to be Grab riders/drivers just to provide food on the table for the family.
Pls stop complaining about the things that we dont have...Always be blessed about the things that we have...
Mid cycle increment?...you ask GC and see what she will say.
2022 salary freeze firm, AWS reduction on the cards.
Retain staff? SG attrition not that bad...still many remaining slogging hard and winning
Morale? What morale? If you want to feel good...you are working in the wrong company.
Please open your eyes and see reality.
Any chance of mid year salary adjustment (similar to China) to boost morale & retain employees?
Why is / how can NSI (be) a performance enhancement tool?
It is already happening in this year’s PA sessions where people who were assessed Excellent, Very Good and Good in 2020, are now dropped into NI / NSI - just to meet the 8% quota (for NSI).
That 8% (a void created from the 2020 PILs, 2021 country study severance and recent resignations) has to be filled, REGARDLESS.
So how would any supervisor correctly message someone who did well last year, and had continued to do exactly same (if not better) this year, only to have to tell him/her that he/she NEEDS SIGNIFICANT IMPROVEMENT now and will have to undergo PIP … or else ?
Not enough people
Leaving for GC to claim credits on the structural costs reductions. She’s really LCM - lousy country manager man. Morale low and has done nothing to address it except that stupid memo to tell us NSI is a performance enhancement tool. Then why the fu-k is DW not PIPed?
Yes. No increment for 2022 too.
you be living under a rock to miss how many folks are resigning weekly...if you choose to stay on...i hope your faith keeps you winning. Or maybe you are dept head level drawing $20k+
did I miss anything: pay freeze for 2022 is also confirmed ?
This is disappointing especially for younger folks who are supposly at salary creep years in first <10 years of career... missing out a couple of cycles means a lot ...
For now the 3 mths bonus is still around, but not sure for how long...GC still deciding if it should be removed.
2022 pay freeze confirmed though!
Used to intern at exxonmobil. Are they still giving 3months bonus good year/bad year?
Performance assessment is coming soon ladies and gentlemen. Ready to get yourself PIPed or PIP someone in your team! The hunger games are happening soon, and may the odds be in your favor.
Let’s also hope woods get PIPed on 27 May!
Good to have another separate different site for winners and positive charge employees
Love to have this site specially dedicated for losers and negative employees to share the real stories
I wouldn't even bother to look at winners site
# losers is exxonmobil
Okay, working for this week is over.
This forum is going to have many loser posts over the weekend.
Clearly the poor things didn't have much time to look at their phone as they were working their a-s off.
Good luck.
Singapore is ready to help mother Dallas tide through these bad times with a pay freeze and if need be, an AWS cut.
Not well....morale is simply too low among the workforce.....everyday we learn folks are resigning and we are still not doing anything...(hiring or salary treatment)
Mgt in various functions are just trying to prop up morale through empty words of encouragement....not helping in my opinion.
This is a slippery slope....
how is everyone in SG coping? still winning with WeAreEM?
There’s always hope...... just doesn’t necessarily mean you find it in EM, especially in Singapore.
I can’t believe Shopee is the only one hiring though. No one headed to Google or Apple?
who are the people celebrating? Execs/Senior mgt because part of their compensation is stock based...so earnings up, stock up..celebrate. But 99% of thr workforce gets a pat on the back...nothing tangible.
While it is in their interest to create and sell hope..a mirage so the sheeps will stay and slog..at least until the 2022 pay freeze is communicated, it is on you the individual if you choose to buy their story of hope:)
I get the sense there’s a lot of celebrations on the results but there’s no real impact happening to the workers on ground grinding everyday to deliver them. Instead, it’s increasingly likely we will have another year of pay freeze, which really slaps us in the face.
@4mzfl+16zEvLP3 well said well said. It’s the right analysis.
Do I have it right?
2020 increment cycle moved to Jan 1.
Annual wage in 2020 held the same with a “catch up” in Jan 2021 for monthly wage.
Pay freeze in 2021 given the circumstances.
2019 performance will not be a factor in Jan 2022 increments if any. This is discouraging for those that did well and a wash for those that didn’t.
Possible 2022 pay freeze. Jan 2020 pay = Jan 2022 pay. 2020 performance will not be a factor in Jan 2023 increments if any. This is discouraging for those that did well and a wash for those that didn’t.
2021 performance assessed in 2022 paid in Jan 2023 if any.
Good base pay -> ride it out
Junior staff missing increments -> consider alternatives
It pains me to see how hopeful some folks are on salary increment etc. The 2022 pay freeze is firm and it will only be made known in 3Q.
For those who remain hopeful, i applaud you...but those who see the writing on the wall....do start planning next steps.
Sacrifice for the company please! Especially when the company has treated you well in the prior good years.
We are ExxonMobil!!!
Only? come on we have been robbed away with zero increment during 2020/2021.
3-8% increment for most
NO INCREMENT! Be glad you have a job. And by the way, the attrition numbers are still below plan. So it’s obviously manageable.
Are you tone deaf? How can you be asking for increment when we haven’t even raise dividends for our shareholders? We also need to shore up our balance sheet. So don’t dream of increment.
Go and read the NWC recommendations.
getting increment soon?
anyone heard of out -of-cycle increment for SG?
The project and its team is, "Growing Mould".
