It’s the end of the year again. The question that many people are most concerned about is: Are there any year-end bonuses?
At this time in previous years, major companies were competing to show off their happy year-end bonuses, but there seemed to be no movement this year, and it seemed that the situation was not good.
In fact, 2018 was indeed a very worrying year. In the past, the three popular industries with high salary and high year-end bonuses were the Internet, finance, and real estate industries. Currently, they are either laying off employees or cutting wages. Secondly, many small and medium-sized enterprises have difficulty in financing, and many people have closed down.
In such an economic winter, it seems to be a little embarrassed to talk to the boss about the issue of "year-end bonus"... Have we lost our imagination of year-end bonus?
were showing off the year-end bonus last year, and this year it was silent
The Internet industry and the financial industry have always been the settlements of huge year-end bonuses, but this year seems a bit dull. The award speech for the "Honor of Kings Business Department" last year was written as follows:
"It's confirmed! The year-end bonus of Honor of Kings is 100 months, damn it?!!" Under the leaked post, a netizen certified as an employee of Tencent commented: Haha, not all, I'm 120 months.
Didi, which has always been known as a rich man, at the Didi Chuxing member meeting on December 14, CEO Cheng Wei announced that Didi employees’ year-end bonuses this year were reduced by half compared with last year. In addition, Didi executives collectively did not receive year-end bonuses. Compared with the previous year-end bonuses that lasted 10 months, at least 4 months, and a total of 500 million yuan each year, this gap is too big!
Not only Didi, but also the year-end bonuses in the financial industry are also shrinking. Among them, the new asset management regulations and the forced reform of financial technology are the main reasons for the reduction of year-end bonuses. The live broadcast industry is no exception. In the past, Internet celebrity companies gave female anchors one million year-end bonuses. On December 6, 2018, the storm about layoffs enveloped the first echelon of live broadcast Douyu . After experiencing the storm of many top anchors and being removed from major app stores during the National Day holiday, a team of about 70 people from Douyu (Hong Kong) Co., Ltd. was verbally notified of layoffs, and the employees did not receive any email notification before.
This year, employees are tired, but the boss is even more tired
"In 2018, I really felt so tired, and I suddenly became discouraged." Boss Wang, an entrepreneur in his forties, sighed. He looks like his hair is white and he is still running all the way, from warehouse managers, ISO consultants, regional managers of large enterprises, to marketing directors, to starting his own business...
Business owners feel a pessimism and are contagious about each other. This situation is very terrible. Not only are small businesses in a downturn, but large businesses are also trembling in the cold wind. In order to protect themselves, some people began to reduce costs and lay off employees continuously:
It is said that in early May, JD.com and Huawei stopped social recruitment, and employees during the probation period also faced the risk of being fired. In November, personnel optimization was reported again. In early November, , Hammer Technology, also began laying off employees, leaving only 40% of the staff behind. In early December, Zhihu was exposed to lay off more than 300 employees. More serious companies are on the verge of bankruptcy. For example, Gionee mobile phones were reportedly owed 10 billion yuan to suppliers, and were collectively requested to reorganize by suppliers. There is also a small yellow car. The deposit was frantically refunded a few days ago...
How much do you expect to send this year's year-end bonus?
. Netizens feel a little unhappy about this year's year-end bonus:
A: We haven't completed any of our projects this year, so what are we thinking about? The company is still cutting salary in disguise and forcing everyone to leave. We didn't even report the business trip fee last month.
B: Last year, half of the year-end bonus was not cashed. This year, I guess hehe.
C: I have worked in my current company for 5 years. I have sent hand warmers, power banks, and skin care products before. The biggest time was to give a bicycle, which was all drawn from lottery. I heard that the company is not making money this year. I wonder if there is still a year-end bonus?
D: The world is not good this year. Don’t mention the year-end bonus. As long as you pay the salary on time, you will be satisfied. However, the reality is that you don’t pay the salary on time every month, which is really intoxicating.
…
Do you still have expectations for this year’s year-end bonus?
Are you thinking: the company's performance this year is worse than in previous years, but what about the year-end bonus? Should there be any, such as: there is a hammer, a bird, and an egg?
