PBP will have a kicker of probably +3% for profit margin on 7 or 8% so 10-11% payout. Go ask superior DL guys how much PS they're getting this year. Or have gotten last 3 years. Snap up will work. It'll be 7-10+ bucks in Sept depending on SW and AAL. Some guys just can't take the win. New contract has kicked in close to 70k extra for me in just 3 months.

It just seemed like a useful data point to share with others. I was trying to save others from having to log on to the company site, authenticate, navigate to the payroll portal, find their last pay stub and subtract the items from their last pay stub that did not have a $ sign.

It was good to know. I would have assumed that retro would be included. Kinda a joke that it’s not.

The two months, 9/1/22-DOS, of actual retro pay, are included in the PBP payout. The "penalty pay" (22K/33K) from 9/1/21, are not. This point was made by many of us when the AIP came out. Because the company refused to pay out actual retro and instead called it a, "penalty pay bonus", we lost a lot of money in PBP, ESPP and 401K. Being spineless is expensive
