Satya just send a company wide mail. Important points: - Bonus and stock award budget slashed to previous years averages. - Promo budget remains same but performance based now. - No salary increase for full time salaried employees.
We paid for AI with our merit. Next year AI coming for our jobs
I’ve been at the company a long time and never felt like such an expendable cog as I’ve felt the last year.
Promo is now performance based? As opposed to what?
Yeah. I am intrested to get thoughts on promotion. If it is not performance\Team's requirement based, what is it based on? Do people get promoted just for staying in the team for x number of years with below par performance? I wanna know what teams do it so that i can join them :) I'm kidding. Actually, I don't wanna join those teams. They stale my skillet growth .
Was promo budget different last year?
uh yeah https://www.cnbc.com/2022/05/16/microsoft-ceo-satya-nadella-tells-employees-pay-increases-coming.html
