I’m currently at L62 at Microsoft and I received merit increase 6% and rewards 8%. Merit increase looks fine but is rewards too low ? I’m also not happy with the team. Can I switch now ?

With performance review season amounts us, I’m wondering how folks are feeling about this years annual rewards? Will it be treated like years prior?

What is Microsoft’s Reward cycle? If I joined Microsoft in April 2021 (meaning I would not be eligible for a bonus), would it mean that for this upcoming Rewards announcement in August I would be getting a bonus based on April 2021 - August 2022? Appreciate the insights. Thanks!
There was a post about receiving $10 Amazon gift card as annual bonus. Seems like it got deleted.
My manager asked me to prepare a reward slide that he’ll share with his manager. I’m at 60 recently promoted from 59. How does the rewards look like? 59->60 was 8% raise in base salary.
I've heard of people still getting base salary increases this year. I thought that wasn't happening? TC 260
I’m leaving Microsoft and trying to determine when to share the news. I’m heading to a competitor, so I will likely be walked out the day I share. Lots of people on Blind and people I know here say I will still receive my bonus even if I leave before Sept 13th. Is there any possible way to confirm ...Read more

I'm extremely disappointed by my merit raise (8% in this environment!) and refresher. I should've known that the refresher would be so low (20K). Anyone else?
I joined Microsoft last year around May, so i was not eligible for last year Rewards. After having the discussion about the rewards, i got to know that i have received 8% bonus and 6000 USD stocks. How does this reflect my performance ? Should i assume my performance was not good enough ? If yes, wh...Read more

I got a bonus of 8% and stock renewal of 7500 USD. I'm an L62. I think the bonus is utter low and am clueless if the stock options are any good. Have I been low balled heavily? I've been pretty decent at my job. What is the bonus you all are receiving? #microsoft
I know that satya mentioned the reward pool increasing by multiples but I did not expect that it would turn out like this! Last year as an L60 I got around 30k in total rewards, and this year I got 120k SSA’s, in addition to 40k bonus, and an additional 30k refreshers. Totally unexpected. Old TC: ...Read more
How open you talk or should one talk to their manager about the merit increase or reward expectations?
Have put in about 6 months of work at Microsoft. Got 9% merit increase, 8.04% as a bonus, and stock awards of 3600 dollars. Had a good connect prior to the rewards discussion. Is this a cause of concern at level 61? #microsoft #microsoftrewards
