should I push back against getting annual bonuses instead of raises?

Ask a Manager

A reader writes: My workplace wants to start giving out annual profit share bonuses in lieu of salary raises. Basically, the base bonus (which is based on how well the company does that year) would be multiplied by the number of years someone is there (so for the sake of simple math, if the base bonus is $500, then it would $1k for 2-year employees, $1.5k for 3-year employees, $2k for 4-year employees, and so on).

Think You Know Your Total Cost of Workforce? Think Again.

Visier

Organizations are usually pushed to review their TCOW only when facing upheavals, crisis, or simply a pivot in the sector. This is because, in too many organizations, just finding the data can take several months, and as a result, this kind of overwhelmingly large project is only considered when it can no longer be avoided.
