#raises

Thank you BNY for rewarding your employees again this year, we are happy to take the hit so the shareholders can profit...we are all shareholders after all

"Cash generation stood out: cash from operations improved to $409 million and free cash flow rose to $240 million, enabling a $75 million buyback."

Whilst revenues keep shrinking they made $240 last quarter, and forecast $640million for the year. Plenty of money for raises if they want to give them.

Has anyone heard any actual news about raises? I know they normally don’t say anything until closer to December, but sometimes people had info earlier in years past.

When will the new raise system go into effect, and when will we see it?

602 here working in back office in CIB. Mid salary range, what can I expect for my annual raise and bonus?

Think of the most incompetent people you work with. Your peers, supervisors, their supervisors - they are staying. No promotions, no raises, no 9/80s.

Anyone in planning or any managers have any insight on if we will be getting raises at the end of the year? And if so, how much? 2%, 3%?

Since our raises were put on hold, it would seem logical that hiring would be put on pause too?

1. What bonus percentage (as a % of your base salary) do you expect for the end-of-year payout?

0-5%
6-10%
11-15%
16-20%
More than 20%
No bonus expected
Not applicable (e.g., not eligible for bonuses)

1. What pay increase percentage do you anticipate for the next performance review cycle (e.g., 2026 base salary adjustment)?

0-2%
3-5%
6-8%
9-10%
More than 10%

What's the scoop on salary treatments and promotions for 2026? Are they still on? Which countries will have raises?

I joined this fkn company cuz of the defined benefit of plan because in my mind it used to offset the PIP/PDS bullsh-t we have to do every year. Well Atleast they don’t do layoffs right ? I mean even tho the PDS system can be biased it can never be soo biased and merit must count somewhat right ?

Now they do fkn PDS/PIPs and do layoffs AND the raises are sh-t. So can someone please explain to me how does this make imperial better than CNRL/CVE/SU ? Fk being equal, I think imperial is the worst of all of these.

Oh and we don’t get company wide bonuses.

So will we be moving toward forced ranking and no raises this year? Will Mike announce this in the shared energy town hall.

Did anyone get a raise or RSUs? Looks like some people are getting them now.

If the board put it to the masses for a vote..

Would you vote to suspend ALL bonuses and pay raises for a year to avoid a RIF?

It’s all or nothing, if we vote to suspend bonuses and raises.. nobody gets them.

How does a company with record profits not have any budget for paying their employees?! I have an IPF of 140 but there is no budget for salary increases or RSUs?! What a joke. I bet the executives all get their salary increases and stocks. Company is broken. But they LOVE US and it’s because of US. Anyone else angry at our corporate overlords that are out of touch?

Were raising the profile again to others, join us, we used to get rises every year on time in AT&T. These lot are just a bunch of jokers, they dont even communicate or hold town halls now. They said August rises and now we are nearly in October. Everyone join our strike until they listen!

What was the merit pool last year. I remember some people saying it was going to be something crazy like 10%. From what I remember it has been 2% for many years. But as I am not management I wasn't really sure.

I want my raise, my healthcare, and job protections. The union can and will get it for us.

For tenure employees such as myself, I did not get $20000 raise collectively since 2017. As of right now, my pay is a little over a dollar more than minimum. Yes, I am bitter and BOA can careless. After reading the Employee Communications, BOA only cares about new hires as they begin their "meaningful journey". What about existing employees with 25+ years at BOA, what is the "meaningful journey" for them? The pasture? It sure looks that way. I know that there are many B6's such as myself in the same situation. How do you cope with the news? I am at the point of retirement with no notice.

Anyone? This year

Looking at internal jobs and they are hiring for current roles at a grade lower with lower pay then what we are paid now for these roles. Are we being set up to be laid off or fired so they can replace us at lower pay? Are they gonna lay us off and make us apply for these roles to pay us less? Will any of us that make it through layoffs getting a bonus or raise?

Anyone gets raise or rsu?

Amazes me daily contractors loving there positions at XOM. Must be nice to make twice my salary as an hourly contractor. Oh but you get benefits!….Seriously, so do they! And we pay for that. Oh but you will get a pension….. if I’m lucky! If you’re smart only go to ExxonMobil as a contractor. They get treated better than employees. Kudos to the PIP’d ones I’ve seen come back as contractors!….WTF?!?! Not good enough to be an employee, but let us pay you more to be a contractor!…. While we hardly give our employees raises.

Unfortunately that ship has sailed the union leadership messed up years ago.That ship has now sailed !!!!Lets face it the best you can hope for is an agreement that can cap it at some point but Verizon will not roll back the current cap .So right now prepare for $600 month for pre Medicare cost .Lets face it we sold our soul years ago.Anyone currently working keep going till Medicare eligibility or if you leave be prepared to find another job that pays medical till that Medicare .But the corporation ki-led retiree benefits years ago .They have always been one step ahead of the good old boys gang who did our negotiations.The company has always played the long game.The biggest we need to keep an eye on is our pensions along with the lump.We may need heavy duty raises in this agreement knowing now tht in exchange we basically won’t have retiree benefits worth taking.Sorry but the people tht most retirees and current employees voted for years ago based on popularity is now coming to bite us.

I’’ll start:

Yearly pay raises close to or exceeding inflation
Accepting salary based on 35hr/wk, flash forward, management expectation of 40-50, no adjustment
Pressure to ignore benefits paid by lower salary like RFC for “azz in chair” time

Hello is anyone heard if RICOH will be giving raises this year? They have completely fallen off track with the cost of living and they need to do something to retain the workers that they have left.

5 years+, top performer on the team. Was expecting a promotion and raise after this past review cycle, but promotion to “customer” is not what I was expecting.

Last post deleted...

Heard that there will be a PSG adjustment at the end of the year to align us with the industry, anyone else hear this? Heard they are doing salary surveys.

Heard that Chevron, like many companies, are doing salary surveys for an upcoming company wide adjustment to compete with the industry. Anyone else heard anything?

I went from plugging numbers on a spreadsheet to becoming a full stack developer

I learned Granite as well as Watson X and Congos

Why aren’t I getting a raise

Any word if we'll get them this year? Mostly concerned about HGS and merit increases.

When I got laid off from L3Harris, I was devastated. I am a hard worker and I did not deserve what happened to me. I did not know how I was going to support my wife and children (and I know that L3Harris could not have cared less about them). Well, I found a new job that with a raise and a promotion, and I now work with people who respect and appreciate me.

These surveys are beyond RIDICULOUS…there is no REAL changes from them just more busy work!!! We as managers and Directors are not typically the issue but we have to fix it and create a goal..wtf?! The insanity in senior leadership is running wild. Employees want better raises/AIP, more PTO, TO WORK FROM HOME, to not need to use 6 platforms looking for pieces of information and for sh-t to just work in general. He-l I settled for not having too reach out to 20 people looking for simple answers. As line level manage and Directors we can tell our Staff VP’s til we are blue in face about raises and AIP needs but it doesn’t matter! That is if you have a Staff VP that will give you time to discuss anything!!!

Any departments still receiving raises and bonuses?

Hearing conflicting things. So if I make a lateral move (same pay grade) could I move in the range and get a raise. I only get the standard 2% raise per year and am below the midpoint by now. I just want to negotiate to be at mid is this impossible???
