What's it gonna be Sycamore?
You want MORE certified experienced store managers to quit and leave because you're not giving them real transparency into bonus and compensation while expecting more results and giving them less resources?
What does the talent pipeline look like for a high stress salaried 55k job with empty words about a potential bonus? 😂
You want stores to completely collapse with absolutely no direction and only district managers as the point of contact while spread ultra thin and unable to provide real guidance?
Happy and engaged/retained Pharmacists and teams have real leaders in the store that communicate and help them allocate resources like payroll and avoid problems like understaffing and compliance.
Everyone in the pharmacy is way too "busy" to PDR...it's currently called survival. The burnout and turnover is accelerating, coupled with the already toxic company culture is a recipe for collapse.
Every conversation I have with a talented certified store manager speaks of their complete loss of faith in Sycamore and plans to leave soon.
Better call the underwriters and have them get the IPO ready now, you might not make it to next year. Good luck finding investment bankers that'll give you a firm commitment as well during the IPO lol
bonus amount
I'm a GSR6 and my bonus is $16k. Is that a good amount, or am I getting the short stick? I'm honestly just trying to ask. A good friend who is a GSR7 received $23k, but his leadership loves him.
Cliff Bars
Is anyone else doing Cliff Bars? Great lakes region. We start mid April. More work. Same pay
Is everyone getting cr-ppy raises or just me?
Most glowing review yet, but smallest increase I’ve ever had in my 15 years here. Is this a reflection of the budget overall or is this a personal issue?
New Comp Plan
Does anyone have insight into the new comp plan that’s rolling out? My leader is excited and says it’s good news but I’m hearing otherwise.

2025 Exec Comp - DISGUSTING
Absolutely disgusting how detached these crooks are. While continuing to RA skilled resources to execute cheaper labor arbitrage and force rank 15-20% of the employees as poor performers to pay out ZERO GDP/Raises. The Execs all received 40-50% YoY Compensation increases ... let the peasants eat cake [pizza party] Source: 2025 Shareholder Proxy Stmnt:
Arvind: 2023 Comp $20.4M, 2024 - $25.1M, 2025 - $37.99M 51.4% YoY Raise
Kavanaugh: 2023 Comp $11.7M, 2024 - $13.0M, 2025 - $18.8M 44.6% YoY Raise
R. Thomas: 2023 Comp $10.3M, 2024 - $12.3M, 2025 - $17.5M 42.3% YoY Raise
G. Cohn: 2023 Comp $9.5M, 2024 - $10.8M, 2025 - $16.2M 50.0% YoY Raise
Pay ratio
The ratio of the Chairman, President and CEO’s annual total compensation to that of the median employee’s annual total compensation is 765:1 .
Where’s the Discretionary Bonus?
Checked Workday this morning for this Friday’s paycheck, March 20th. No Discretionary Bonus on my Check. Marvin’s email says we would receive it March 20, 2026! Anyone else get the Bonus?
AE Pay Is Wrong and Leadership Is Ignoring
I’m not being paid on accounts I work because I’m being told I wasn’t coded to the account. I asked if they could skate invoices and was told no.
COLA raises
Why, why, why doesn’t this company never give a COLA raise. They know these simple merit increases do nothing and barely cover the difference costs of insurance not to mention all the prescriptions they don’t cover that you have to pay out of pocket for. Then they expect stretch goals and go above and beyond but never give anyone exceeds.
Brilliant Leadership
Inspirational stuff from the 2026 Proxy Statement. Bill’s total compensation jumped from $22M to over $29M (32%) this year. Meanwhile, in the cubicles, we’re out here debating if our 1.5% merit raise covers the gas for the new 5-day RTO mandate. Truly a masterclass in 'Leading the Way.' Thanks for the motivation, Bill!

Executive compensation- 2025 (are they worth it?)
2025 executive pay was just published in Cigna’s annual proxy report. Here’s how much the visionary leaders who are running the company into the ground are making - while your pay doesn’t even keep up with inflation and thousands of us are being laid off or replaced by workers in India at HIH.
David Cordani- $22.9 million
And no doubt he’ll also be getting a huge retirement package when he steps down as CEO in July.
Brian Evanko- $10 million
And he’s poised to make a LOT more as CEO.
Nicole Jones- $6 million
She’s Cordani’s right hand person so that’s not surprising. Will she survive the Evanko era though?
Ann Dennison (CFO)- $4.7 million
She’ll probably make a lot more this year depending on how fast Cigna can get rid of dedicated employees
Everett Neville- $4.1 million
How does this guy make that much?? He doesn’t run any businesses or operations and seems to just be a talking head. His title is “EVP, Strategy and Business Development” but we don’t even have a real strategy and the last few business development deals have been total disasters - MDLIVE or VillageMD anyone?? Cigna lost between $1.5 and $1.8 BILLION on VillageMD alone. How does that justify being paid more than $4 million??
Folks who got <100% bonus modifier...
... how are you interpreting it? Did you get salary increase? Does 90% modifier mean your contribution is not satisfactory? Is it time to look for another job?
Any news about Bonuses and Merit Increase?
It’s already mid March, did anyone hear about the year end bonuses and merit increase? Are we having this year?
Question about PR
If I got “Met” for overall and a decent bonus and raise, but inconsistent in a couple of the smaller categories does that matter?
Those who got impacted / laid off recently; were you able to negotiate the severance?
What was the packages/ offers you guys got? Just asking to see if its worth trying to negotiate/ how to negotiate
Quick Question on the New Comp Plan
Quick show of hands how many of you are seeing higher earnings under the new comp structure, and how many are seeing less?
"Rewards"
Rewards are NOT learning experiences and more work... "Rewards" are actually paying employees and giving cost of living increases.
Calling it now, the ONLY people getting these "merit" increases will be leadership and sales peeps. Meanwhile the rest of us will stay stagnant and take on second and third jobs while we try and hunt for a new career in this dumpster fire of a job market.
Executive Compensation
Anyone else see the stocks that all the execs got? It's crazy that they are laying people off in different BUs, changing the variable comp goal posts, and bringing in McKenzie over and over and they still get that bonus. Are we all just happy with a job and .9 VC instead of demanding better? Feels like they are asking for unions with this BS.
Why should I care about yall hired after 2008.
You ain’t nothing without us! You don’t need no raises no 401k or anything. You need to worry about us cuz we
Dont care bout you at all. Company fire you for putting up a fight. We good. Thanks Moe for explaingrhat juniors hires ain’t worth nothin
Pay range question
Anyone know how to find salary ranges for specific roles here? And does location change the number? Thanks.
What's the biggest raise you ever got here?
I'll go first. Six percent one time. That's it.
When will SB go?
Downgrading again of credit rating. Poor results. Low employee morale. Late implementation of integration activities (all sales were supposed to be on new CRM by April now it is only the US). Moving people to low-cost location but they can’t or won’t recruit in time. CFO who presided over millions of loss in LEX. Confusion over new organisation. No clear communication of who is doing what and new process. Unethical practices with suppliers and no paying them. CMO flying all over the world for no reason and yet no inflation raises for anyone. Inconsistent AI strategy. Unclear compensation plans. Stock declining. There may be other things ….
Bonus calc - math question
2024 - Global KPIs 70% = payout 174.51%
2025 - Global KPIs 70% = payout 140%
Clever accounting ?
RSUs can end up _costing_ money
Given that RSUs are W2 income & taxed as such, it is very possible that an RSU could end up costing money (lowering one's net income): when It is taxed when the stock is high (at vesting) and then later value of the stock could be so low that it is less than the taxes paid originally.
And when selling it, the losses can be offset against W2 income with at most $3K/year.
Moral of the story: If the stock is high(ish) on the RSU vesting date: Sell all of it right away.
(I guess one could also opt for stock options instead of RSUs)

Bonus Payout
When do we get our bonuses this year?
Shell CEO’s pay jumps 60% despite slump in profits at oil company

10-K ELT Comp - $132M among PP and top 5 ELT
2025 10-K just published on SEC.gov. See for yourself, page 82 for executive compensation.
PP - $28M
AM - $21M
KC - $22M
DC - $19M
KJ - $21M
FL - $21M
$132M among 6 people. Unreal.
What does severance look like?
Some of the news feeds reporting 18 months and other generous offerings?
Merit increases? Layoffs? Contracts?
How is it that a bargaining unit in New Jersey gets 5% a year for 3 years (plus a sign-on bonus of 1% each year for a total of 18%) ???
I got a lousy 2.5% ! Most people got 2 - 3%.
Obviously the New Jersey crime syndicate is alive and well in that union.
Dell Raise & bonus
Alright! This is neither a whining post nor a show off post. This post is for my own knowledge so can make an educated decision about moving within dell or outside of dell. I was given a 4% raise and RSU 30k this year and I’m sitting at about 155k base pay as a i9 in Texas.
I personally feel after being here for 9yrs and being one of the top performer, I should have gotten more than just 4% raise and 100% bonus. So I’m trying to understand what the avg i9 in Services make so I get an idea of me being underpaid or is it just where I need to be.
SVP salary Tampa
What's a fair acceptable range for SVP role in Tampa for a senior person? I know this is a sinking ship and its a temporary boat for me.
Ranges posted are 155 to 230k and most of them are willing to pay around 155. Why post the range so high if they don't want to pay?
RSU
Did they give RSUs this time??? I was told 2.5 percent is the highest in org this time around lol
Severance lump sum miscalculation
Looks like wells botched severance lump sum payouts and is sending out checks and letters for those who were underpaid.
New Compensation Structure is a “JOKE”
So if you sell more and advance over 100% one gets penalized. Short and simple summary. So sell to only reach 100% after doing your “8”, then hit the “gate”. If they ask to “Sell”, then be like : HA HAAAAA MOFOS!! 🤣🤣🤣
