Pathetic Incentive Comp Increase

[anonymous]

Been over a DECADE since Novo has adjusted their yearly Incentive Compensation plan. $1500 increase? That is an insult. Total slap in the face. Especially since they alluded during prior calls that they understood how inflation was hitting us, and that they would address it. Love having a job, but, there’s really no huge incentive to go above and beyond in hitting your goals.

100% agree
A lot of good reps are leaving Monday.

Wake up. They can put the target bonus as high as you’d like. Then they’ll increase the goals so make the same that you’ve always made. It’s a smoke screen. Increase our base, or don’t bother.

With goals where they’ve been the last couple years, we’ve been taking a pay cut…I guarantee they’re not paying the bonus budget all out.

if they actually paid for our true performance the quarter that we earn it, there would be far fewer people leaving.

Specialty got zero increase in target bonus. Apparently inflation only hits the DCS reps.

Stop, you have 12 customers you can access in your specialty role and make 10k more than a dcs…

You are spot on. Go through the last ic tracker and look to see how many reps nationally met goal 100% or greater. It's been averaging roughly around 30% since 2020.

It's ALL smoke and mirrors. Plus the constant talk of "One Team" bullshit yet, DCS gets a kicker of 34% and OCS 66%.

And before anyone starts on their tirade about if you're unhappy then leave - I am only pointing out the obvious that Doug, Vince and the ET thinks we are too stupid to realize.

We got a bigger kicker because we made more than you. Go cry some more.

Here’s an idea: exceed your goals. You’ll get paid more. That just blew your mind, didn’t it??!!
