It’s time for bonuses at work

It’s time for bonuses at work

It’s my first time as a leader and I have to sign off on them. No problem. However, I found out today not everyone gets the same amount, even though everyone at the company was told they would get a set amount based on being full time or part time. How am I supposed to explain to my employees that even though the email said you’d get X amount, I can only approve Y amount? I’ve really been struggling with my job lately, and this might be the last straw that makes me step down. This does NOT sit well with me.

    Omg. How awful that they are not transparent on their calculation. So difficult to deal with shady management.

    Who changed the rules in the middle of the game? If it is upper management being a leader you should speak out on how this could be a de-motivator for your hard working team.

    You really need to have clear regulations on financial matters. Policies and regulations need to be followed coreball to ensure good communication. Your question is good and I wish you can convince successfully.
