Fidelity Investments I joined FIL on 08th August 2022 and hence was eligible for appraisal but even after a good feedback, I was told that there is no increment in salary as well as bonus because of "Too Soon To Decide" rating. And this is being followed not just in our team but in whole FIL. This is the first time I am hearing such kind of thing and didn't found any thing like this on "HR Hub". So, if anyone of you know about this or have received similar gyan from Manager, please share your experience. Fidelity In

Now a more constructive comment … one of the most important things you need to know is whether you’re given the opportunity to say “no” or pass on cases assigned to you. Bad cases take up more time and energy than good ones and are detrimental to your reputation.
In the past I had considered switching sides, and one thing I think is important to know when interviewing is how you get paid and how your level of success is actually measured. A lot of PI firms screw over their associates or even their partners and folks are constantly spinning off on their own to get a bigger piece of the pie.
Try to get the following information without being too demanding in your questions:
What’s the base salary? Is it negotiable, and does it increase, and Will they consider getting you close to or better than your defense base while you ramp up?
What is the bonus structure? Is it all “discretionary?” If so, how is your success measured and how are you financially rewarded?
Do you get a percent cut of fees generated on cases assigned to you? What is it? Does it vary based on who else is on the file and at what point in the case you took over or got paid? do you get your cut when the money comes in the door or only at a certain point of the year?
What’s the deal on origination? Do you get credit if there’s a referral lawyer who sends you the case or only if it’s direct?
Ohio. Ouch.
Ohio has some pretty regressive laws for plaintiffs. Caps make it hard to pressure carriers and thus you have to work a lot harder for your money. And generally speaking … as one of my closest friends from Ohio says … Ohio is a great place to move from 😂
I’m in completely different state but we have two ID guys doing Plaintiffs here at our firm and they are great, they do solely litigation cases, caseload and being able to speak to the staff or other attorneys about Firm culture i think are always great questions, are you splitting prelit and litigation or solely one or the other, and compensation
What types of support staff do you have access to (lit paralegals, intake-screening?, demand writers?, case managers, accounting reps, subro negotiators, staff attorneys, medical records department?), expected caseload, what parts of file management are you responsible for, what type of cases do they need support for, what resources the firm has or subscribes to, who’s managing you—are they likeable and communicating clearly, required hours, whether you have to track your billing, strict and explicit bonus structure laid out in detail.
What state? I made the move.
Good to know. Thanks!
