Last year, we received our annual bonus for january 2022 to december 2022. Since we are receiving the bonus in march this year, it means that we are actually getting the bonus for march 2023 to february 2024. That effectively leaves out the 2 months (Jan, Feb) of 2023 for which we did not get any bonus. Does anyone know if google has any plan to address this? I have looked through moma and found a presentation which addressed this problem for stock refreshers(1/6 extra) but I could not find anything regarding bonus. #google #bonus
This is the same case in Meta too
Didn’t Meta always pay the bonus with the March pay? At least since last year?
Isn’t it usually the bonus for the previous FY, 2023? So your bonus is Jan to Dec, they just get to put off paying it out by a couple months in case people leave/are PIPed etc
My company pays us mid April, robbing us about 28% of the bonus.
We lose 2 months of Bonus & equity every year now. People with 6 years will essentially lose 1 year of appraisal - Double whammy - cliff and no appraisal It's sad how Google is robbing us so bad
We lose 2 months of bonus and equity for every term of employment at Google And we lose two months of base appraisal*bonus multiplier every year of employment
Oh. My. God. So much entitlement over what should be a rounding error, especially given that most people get sign-on bonuses and higher comp when they change companies. Think about your first 2 months at Google. Do you think you were such a big contributor that you deserved a bonus and equity for those 2 months. Now go back to work, get a higher rating or promo, and stop worrying about these things. Or don’t come to this horrible horrible place to begin with.
No plan. Google robbed us off 2 months of bonus at minimum and 14 months at maximum
