How much did we REALLY lose?
No annual pay raise (inflation adjustment), no bonuses, 10% pay cut, no more 401k contribution matching... we lost way more than 10%. More like 20%. Meanwhile BJDD who made almost $15M in 2014 brags about giving himself a 10% cut.

Anyone read Bernie's memo on March 15?
I trust that most people have seen the email Bernie sent out on March 15, 2016. He really needs to have someone proof read his memo's, or lay off the scotch while writing. I'm still trying to make sense of "There's no point here and now arguing this... — read more

I rather layoffs to forlough
I know I am in minority but I rather see layoffs than a general paycut. I really doubt I get picked to be let go but even if I do, it is better than my current situation which is doing job of 3 people. Just too much stress. There are a lot of people... — read more

CEO taking a 10% pay cut, how generous. I wish my pay cut was only 10%
With no bonuses or vehicle allowance AND furloughs, pay cuts for regular employees are well over 10%. What really sucks is higher ups taking a pay cut would save a lot more money than the regular Joes, Especially since we have like 50 VP's.
