[17:06:58] <Sulla> Ugh, work decided to redo the compensation package to use the money that was for a step system to keep new talent to instead give increases to boomers who have been here 20 years and want their ranges to increase
[17:07:55] <Sulla> Old system was an absurd 2.1% cola and 5% step for first six years then only cola forever. Now its 2.1% cola and a 3% if you meet exceptional productivity
[17:08:16] <Sulla> Their definition of exceptional is achieving progress in these five marxist metrics
[17:10:56] <Sulla> Progress in your emotional intelligence, creative workl environment for new ways to include people, how you made people more included in the past year. I guess the remainder arent marxist just annoying, progress in being physically healthier, self awareness, and team skills development
[17:11:17] <Sulla> Lots of stuff that for it/accounting are annoying when introverted
[17:19:32] <mechanicjay> Old system sound like a way to loose people in their 6th year pretty reliably.
[17:23:43] <AndyTheAbsurd> That actually sounds more like pandering to SJWs than to boomers.
[17:24:24] <AndyTheAbsurd> C'mon, "progress in emotional intelligence", seriously? How is this a metric that a company cares about?
[17:30:04] <chromas> didn't boomers invent the modern sjw?

[17:47:14] <pinchy> it sounds like u called up someones house if u dont state the business name
[17:48:18] <chromas> According to phone conversations on tv, you're supposed to ask if it's the business you're calling
