Nothing like a good ol’ year end company Christmas conference call to tell us how we did. Third year in a row to have record breaking numbers. 20% more revenue than last year. 6% ahead of budget this year. Cutting all outside salesman’s commissions percentages by 25%. Wait…WHAT??!! Merry Christmas…talk to you next year. What a kick in the nuts.

Do we work for the same company? This sounds eerily familiar
There are 3 certainties in an uncertain world:

2. All Gun Laws Are an Infringement
3. Taxation Is Theft

Sounds like a Chevy Chase Christmas Vacation deal. Was about to say the same.

Every pay plan is designed to benefit the company. I’ve worked for a number of publicly traded companies - when revenue and profits are up - they adjust your pay plan in a way that you have to exceed a higher quota to make the same. And if the company misses analyst expectations- you can expect to see a RIF as a cost cutting measure.

Seriously though, if that's how they want to do business, my remaining time with that company would be short. That's not how you keep good people.

organize every salesman to show up at the office to get a raise or quit at the same time That sounds like a union. I thought the majority of Aldeerians were against unions.

We handed out everyone's Christmas bonus last week, even the lady that comes in and cleans twice a week got one. The employees will feel appreciated and will do more for the business.
