I keep hearing people say that we got a bonus for nothing in return. The bonus is a recruiting and retention tool, nothing more. Management wanted the bonus, not us. Therefore, we gave them a recruiting tool for nothing in return. I'm not sure how aligning ourselves and giving them more small reasons to sell this place to new hires will help us negotiate in June. In fact, I think this hurts us overall because they probably will be able to squeak in a few more new hires and continue to act like major changes to pay and flow are not needed.
