PhreeZone 20 #27 December 10, 2004 QuoteWell, I get paid well, but I do work at least 50 hours a week. Plus pull a 16 hour day once a month and one weekend day a month. And I'm on call 24x7, but that's rarely invoked. Geeze I'm getting screwed then. I have'nt worked less then 50 hours in a LONG time, I have to carry my pager every where and I usually get pages 3-6 times a week. When I went to WFFC I had 14 text pages and 8 voice mails on my cell and another 10 on my desk even though both said I was with out phone or email for a week. Plus I'm personally held responcible for making sure that we meet SOX and GLB plus SAS70 and other audits. Each audit item we get hit on means my chances of a riase go down a lot. More then 3 items and I can kiss a bonus good by. Lately we've been running 12-15 items a year and its on shit I have no control over I'm on a personal day today and have gotten 3 calls and a page already and I consider this to be a really light day.

Jeth 0 #29 December 10, 2004 QuoteMy target is 100%. An ok bonus is 20%. If I get 10% I know it's time to dust off the resume. Wow, thats awesome! When I was hired I was told the bonuses here were "about a month's pay". But in my 3 years here I've gotten $250, $1500, $2000.... WAY less than a month's pay! (But I seem to be in an upward trend, so I have high hopes for this year! ) I'll be happy if I get at least $2000 again... "At 13,000 feet nothing else matters." PFRX!!!!!
