wtf is a holiday bonus

 

[ValeRx]

Your holiday bonus is that you still have a job.

 

[ValeRx]

.. or at least that's what your manager or coordinator will tell you.

Sounds like you got something. I am dying to know what it was.

A beautifully worded email telling us “happy holidays”

I usually get some company branded item (water bottle, shirt, etc.).

"Thank you for all you do.... no raises this year... again."

Walmart gave out a $400 Covid bonus to all pharmacists and $300/$150 to all FT/PT technicians for Christmas. Does that count?

 

[Sine Cura]

Oh did they give $400 to "Health & Wellness management"? In California FT pharmacists got $300 x4 this year (either COVID-LS or LUMP SUM HRLY).

Yeah you're right. I guess that's technically a COVID-LS bonus that just happened to land on the paycheck near Christmas.

Nope q

Never had a holiday bonus before. We're not office workers.

Walmart announced internally (no press release) that staff pharmacists would get $1500 if full-time status, $1000 if part-time status, to be deposited on Feb 18

This screws over the abused part-time floater pool that have been working 40 a week for years (but never open door that **** so it's kinda their fault?)

Let hope they are not taking away yearly bonus and replacing with these special bonuses COVID bonus.

You can actually load the final incentive statement now to verify your position information is correct, now but it will show "N/A" under "AOR," whatever AOR is supposed to mean.

Remember the "estimated incentive amount" is the last column on the bonus summary, whereas this "AOR" column is second to last (the last column currently is "eligible days."

Gotta love that the gift is money to be spent at your place of employment! I can't complain thou, we did get a 3.5% bonus the first week of december - not necessarily a "holiday bonus" but it was unexpected this year.

Sorry I'm pretty new to the company so I have no idea how to look this up. Is it on the WIRE or Workday?

Tbh that's more than we got.

we got a raise as well, albiet the smallest in 15 years.

 

[TheBlaah]

This year I had a 2.25% raise, which was the smallest in years. Then it was immediately followed by a market adjustment, so the total ended up being 3.5%.

congrats - probably in the top 5% of all rph's during a year like this - mine was 2.25% and no market adjustment (but I never expect one of those for the rest of my career)

At my intern job - we would always get a turkey for thanksgiving and a ham for Christmas - they would literally pull up a semi freezer truck and park it in the parking lot and they would hand them out - I thought it was pretty cool
