RPD 24









4% in US. Problem is MRP's went up almost double that. Will someone help me understand that logic? Have people leave because they aren't paid what others offer but then hire others back at a higher set point?
 








Next year will be even more about "fairness". We have our 24' goals we need to populate in WD and at the end of the year we will be paid based on how we align to the MRP for our given level. So why bother?
 




MRP - mid range point. We need more transparency with salaries. Most jobs are profiled a level below - take a look in WD and look how they are profiled. AZ have historically paid bad compared to peers, jeez- even GSK pay more.

great company but terrible performance management and reward system!

Actually stands for "market reference point".
 












When first line manager's input is changed by a higher up based on "fairness" and not what was seen on the ground, you are headed down a very bad and bumpy road. Not sure who the brainiacs are that determined this idiocy, but they will be the same ones scratching their heads as people decide to ratchet back their efforts or leave to greener pastures resulting in poorer performance for brands and a perpetual circle of bringing in new hires that likely won't be better than who left.

Here's something for CBD's, EBD's and HR to sleep on: trust your field leaders, they know better than anyone.
Will expect to see several DSM & PSS openings shortly.
AZ has become a social experiment that will fail.
 








How can they give me less that a 1.48 bonus multiplier? fairness and distribution?, no - you are taking away from my allocated budget to give to someone else without full transparency and openness.

Also, no talk of MRP this year in the manager patter

As previous stated, DEI is running the show. A shit show. Get out ASAP. Will only get worse.

After the "merit" increase conversation, I am 100% about living the "all day lie". You work, you try and then get spit on. Smiling and kissing ass will be my new hobby while I pick up a side hustle. I fought it for quite a while but AZ has determined that effort and results do not matter.

HR debacle knowing if MRPS are increasing and we are expanding our sales force, then help us bring new people in more commensurate with where MRP is going to be so we are not having to pull from our reward pool for the loyal employees who worked through all the disruptions in 2023 to continue bringing in profits to adjust a new hire salary for far less time in field/impact. Shame on HR for putting all of leadership in this position and for pulling rewards from tenured, loyal AZ employees who carried the load all year, going above and beyond despite the changes we knew were ahead. We all recognize this is no longer a Rewarding Performance activity, it’s a Salary Adjustment activity, but hurting people who put all the effort in during the year just doesn’t land well.

We are no longer in an annual merit increase time…that changed several years back. At least my DSM called it what it is…a salary adjustment….not based on anything other than where you fall compared to the market reference point. Gone are the days when leaders could reward those who contributed more and impacted beyond local areas. With this knowledge, many will decide not to take on “extra work” because you can put it in your year end scorecard, but there will be no financial reward to do it. Sad but honest here. Spend more time with your family, your hobbies, etc.
 




The problem of putting identity and fairness over competence is those that you F' will play the game but will not give effort they have historically given. At the end of the day, it won't work well for you AZ.
