Last year Spotify pushed back the date they give comp increases from March 1st till May 1st with seemingly no reason. Has anyone else's company done this? I'm annoyed because this time last year I would have already started receiving my new paycheck amount and I feel like this year its a long ways away

Google shifted from Jan 1 to March 1 a few years back, to align with our financial calendar

Never said better align. Just said align. I don’t get it either, but at least they prorated the base, bonuses and stock for the year they made the shift. So worked out ok.

It’s a way for them to get a quick savings. They’ll hold your bonus/incentive and prorate that too, right?

Yeah no bonuses at spotify but the raise is definitely not prorated

We went from April 1st to July 1st effective date but still get letters in Q1 of what the increase will be.

It's based on year end performance reviews. It feels like an accounting trick.

Always finding ways to screw over employees to make their quarter look good on paper. It's reasonable to be annoyed by that. Maybe I'm just bitter.

Hey Bowl,
I work for a late stage(ipo) start up, earlier this year we were acquired & since then they got rid of our yearly bonuses and gave us an ESOP grant.
2 RIFs later we are almost bare bones. Since we are coming up on our usual yearly evaluations many of us assumed (with multiple conversation from our managers) that pay raises and promotions were due.
In a recent All hands we found out that this year there will be no pay raises nor promotions based off merit. Is it time to jump ship?
