Stock went up by more than 3% today. Life is good! This is the best company to work for in the entire world.

I've been at Q for 12 years now, so if I get laid off, my package will be substantial. However, I recently got a new job offer in the Bay Area. Should I wait for the package or accept the job offer?

level: senior to staff salary increase: 11% performance rating: NA RSU: none Bonus: none

With a 5% merit increase and 20K retention bonus. Plus, I have 3 engineers reporting to me, so I'm a manager now. All those years of working late nights and weekends have finally paid off.

This company hasn't given it's employees merit increase nor bonus for the past 12 months now. It also has a track record of handing out insulting, low ball offers. I don't understand who in their right mind would want to stick around this place?

I can tell most of them are waiting for their packages so they can get the hell outta dodge.

Why is it that the same people are always wandering the hallways. Everyone has a designated office but it seems like they are always wandering the halls or breakrooms. Or even smoking outside smoking.
