Has anyone else been given stretch goals without stretch pay or a performance based bonus? I just got my team’s goals for 2026. Most of the targets are reasonable (slightly higher than today’s levels), but a few of the stretch exceed what my top performers are hitting now. What advice do you have for this situation?

Stretch goals are just that. Extra on top of workload. Not expected work to be done beyond their normal scope. If someone opts not to participate in stretch roles that’s on them. Just means they hit the “meeting expectation” on their reviews. If they want higher than that then they need to hit the stretch roles.

They are examples that you can use for future job interviews :)

I was hired on with a company at the same time as my male coworker. We work the exact position, different projects.
I asked him flat out what his salary was when he hired on. His salary is at minimum 15% more. He’s never had a raise.
Neither one of us had any experience in this specific position but he didn’t even have experience in the field, which I did.
I requested a performance and salary review because it’s my annual review time anyway. Best way to address this? Also applying elsewhere.
