Like big 4 but somehow worse. I got $500 each year I was there despite working my ass off, stellar reviews and firm revenue growing. Managers get slightly higher.

Let’s face it, we’re not really in this industry for the bonuses. But combine GT’s laughable bonus with the already low comp and no good benefits ... nah, pass.

At what level did you make the switch to big4? And at what level do you recommend making the switch?

It’s 0 dollars and 0 cents this year.

To answer your question, it’s entirely discretionary. It is not tied to a % of your salary or influenced by how well you do. Having exceeds ratings does not necessarily mean you get a higher bonus than ones who just got meets ratings. Bonuses are generally more the higher your level, but as others have mentioned, it’s pretty small. FYI the senior associate bonus was around 1k in 2019

Highest bonus I received in 3 years was 3k, even after getting "exceeds". Bonuses were 2-4% of salary if you were lucky

Wow. I never thought RSM would be good in this category. 5% of salary, but last year was 8% due to firm/my performance being baller.

Hello folks at Uber, I’ve been approached by a recruiter for the role of a Regional Operations Manager - Eats’ Marketplace team. Wondering how this fares against the Strategy and Planning team (which I’m guessing is the most elite Strategy team at Uber). Also, should I be looking out for any other non-engineering teams within Uber that are well known for what they do?
