What an insult....
One of the reasons I left
How is life there? Tpm with sfdc skills here. Are they hiring?
Depends on the org, but a tough year means shitty raises, no equity, and limited promotions. Seriously, low pay is a constant topic across the entire base. Nobody leaves Amazon for Expedia for money. Unless they're moving up a level, expe hiring is pretty lax.
1%
Bloomberg gave me 0% raise and took away 7k of my 28k bonus. But why? Because I was pushing modern things like test driven development...etc. Mike Bloomberg may be so progressive, but his company is very conservative... lol
And why am I still there? 15 min commute and 7 hour workday... fire me if you dare!
Doesn't Bloomberg have an exam it makes fresh hires take after 1 year to prove they still are worth it for the company ?
My TCT was bumped by 15% in April. I’m pretty happy with that...
How did you pull that off?
By being “maximum investment” according to my manager.
Amazon sucks. 1-2% increase does even pay for my gas to work.
How large was your TC increase after stock price increases though?
There was not a significant increase since they hired me at lower base and since the stocks are yet to vest( just finished 2 years) and given the unpredictability of the stock price I can never be confident of having a specific amount take home.
Work hard have fun and make history when you jump from day one
Speak up. Make it clear your insulted and get more. Anything is possible.
You may get 0% or go on pivot as well.
Only way up is to get promoted or hope the stock keeps climbing.
Or just say you are trans. They will fight tooth and nail to keep you
How much?
