Kicapan07 Lmao at describing a 50% bonus at loss making divisions is considered "little" (and it goes up to 100% too). More than a fair offer given the current state of those divisions. Memory division getting huge bonuses of 600%is warranted giving that's where the current windfall is coming due to the memory price crazyness from but not LSI and foundry, which are loss making.

So, your move would be to create entirely unnecessary animosity between employees in different divisions because you want to play the game of trying to give bonuses only to employees whose work can somehow be directly tied to profits from the memory division? That's certainly a choice. The kind that would get me immediately applying to work for a competitor. When did it become so trendy to pretend that companies should operate in a completely cold, capital-driven manner while entirely ignoring the human impact of their actions? It's really a pretty disturbing attitude. Reply

It's really a pretty disturbing attitude. As somebody who works in Taiwan, I have to say it is a very common attitude from the management here. "You are all replaceable", "This is my success and my money" or "His vision brought the company to where it is" as an attempts of some managers to justify leadership's decisions on company culture. I am not saying every company is like that, but the more I am here, the more I hear from others and see by myself too. Reply
Why_Me pclaughton said: So labor in countries other than the U.S. still understand their worth. Never heard that one before. I live in Alaska and this is what our union laborers make: Union laborers in Anchorage (represented primarily by Laborers' Local 341) earn base hourly wages ranging from $29.82 to $54.01 , depending on their specific classification. These base wages are supplemented by a robust fringe benefits package, which typically adds an additional $34.26 per hour to the total compensation. Reply

And they're all generally terrible to work for. That's the kind of place you want to leave as soon as you have the opportunity. Reply
