Performance Bonus

Performance bonus is based on a lot of factors, like company interest, team performance, your own performance. But last year, we didn;t end up with a good bonus number.

very general and basic coverage

generous performance bonus paid every 6 months

Never got any, even when I’m top rated

I got paid out for a bonus after I left. I thought they made a payroll mistake but it turned out that I was in fact paid a bonus after I quit.

Only available for permanent employees to allow them to be compensated for over achievement.

We always were told up front what to expect, so that is good. In terms of the actual $$ it is So so, it was always clear there is or there is no bonus.

You don't give achievement awards to the slackers for, once in a while, doing their damned jobs.

key performance indicators are not clearly spelt out and there is not a formal process or clarity around how an employee is measured. as a result, feedback is not actionable and without details on how to address deficiencies. Seems very subjective.
