I'm curious—does anyone here work for an organization that provides a cost-of-living (COL) adjustment OR eligibility for a year-end performance bonus, even if modest, that’s paid out during the first quarter of the following year. I didn't think these were mutually exclusive incentives.
Is this common or becoming common?

In my almost 30 years of working, I have never received a COL increase or bonus for the same purpose. Bonuses tied to performance metrics are common, but not given just because eggs are more expensive.

I’m seeing neither happening recently. They should be two separate things, each with its own purpose. Getting one and not being able to get the other doesn’t make sense. Although that doesn’t mean it’s not how companies are treating it.

In the organization I work for, the only way this happens is if the COL adjustment would cause them to go outside of their role’s pay band.

Yes! I do and no it’s not common

I haven't seen any cost of living adjustments personally, I wish my company did that!

Hi 👋🏻 Would love some support here - looking to build out a bonus structure for a Sales Engagement Mgr role - it isn't a typical sales role - this person will be closing deals but not necessarily securing leads. If they will be scoring leads, it will be organic via conferences, partnerships. Of course, we want to encourage and incentivize this person. Potentially giving then an extra 20-50k bonus potential. How do I build this out? Any suggestions or examples would be super helpful. Thank you!!
