Yes, it is too less. But less enough to take more English lessons.
Until Hock’s team wields their excel spreadsheet sword, no one is “safe”. How many times in your life did you think your job was safe anyway? You are better off getting used to uncertainty and dealing with it as it will always be there.
The question for the rest of us - if we didn't get this Retention RSU bonus, does it imply anything about our future?
I got $50k. Is it too less?
Got retention rsu 100k vest quarterly over 3 years.

How significant?
$50,000
$100,000
$150,000
$200,000
i spoke to someone in a "corporate function" that i expected to be wiped out. this person indicated getting a retention bonus. just a datapoint...ymmv
I got the email from my VP and the confirmation from HR. I got RSUs vesting over 3 years with Nov 1 as the issue date and vesting quarterly. It was less than $300,000 but still significant. My manager had put me at the top of the stack rank but didn't know that I got the letter until I told them. Now we shall see how the work day goes.
Retention RSU grants happen on Nov 1 and VPs are not the only people doing the communication. If you haven't heard yet, then you probably aren't getting one.
This is correct. Direct from VP HR -> employee.
VPs are awarding the retention bonuses directly and are not informing the line managers.
Why would you get an email about a retention bonus? Your manager, unless they suck or there was a big mixup or the decision was made while they were on PTO or some other legit excuse, should be informing you if said bonus prior to receiving such an email…
Only a few are important enough. Everyone else update your cv.
No.

I hear they will offer free gender change surgeries and give you big bonus if you keep saying your pronouns every 2 mins.
SEBU here, but no bonus or email about a bonus. We are expecting to be sold off like Tanzu
When did you receive the email about this RSU?
Amazing and unbelievable
Not retention bonus (cash) but retention RSU, 3 yrs, 300k vests each quarter (12 quarters) , first vest Feb.
Im in a BU they couldn’t sell off or they would not have a company. Received a stack of RSUs with a much better vest schedule , doubtful they mean anything with a layoff.
probably for those bu's they're planing to sell off...lol
I got a rock
Yes they are giving me 1k a month extra for staying. I am in Tanzu not sure what it'll mean long term.
Uh. No.
