No clue on raises. We’re being acquired and they may use that as an excuse not to give any raises. After a few years of frozen pay – they did give raises last year… and my division is profitable and my review was decent… so hopefully I’ll get something.
Merit bonus will be typical according to a formula based on pay grade and review performance. My division did well – but we’ll be hammered by the other division’s losses. Somehow they always turn the “green lights” reported by the third quarter into “red” or “Yellow” stop lights for the year. I’m skeptical of how they determine this stuff. But I should get something… Nominally about 10%. It’s not distributed till June, though.
Equity grants – they changed the distribution for that last year – now you have to be a “chosen one” to get any. It used to be a pretty standard part of our total compensation… Not anymore.
