Actually got a 15% raise and 7% bonus within the last 3 weeks but it's due to a new position and finishing up my old projects.

Not to brag, but we’re seeing record sales during this and the company is offering a daily bonus for showing up to work. I got a flat rate bonus of $600 but my employees are getting $25/day extra for just coming to work on top of their commission. We printing Monday right now in the potato chip business

Holding steady, for now, but sales are at half volume. 25% reduction could be coming, unless the banks get off their arse and process the PPP applications.

Wife got cut 20% for 90 days
I got essentially laid off for a week (so far)
Sister got 20% cut til the end of the year
Another sister (government worker) got reduced hours, but is "working from home".
Of course retired in-laws and mother keep getting their retirement checks and pensions

Still in the office full time (if not extra covering for the fired staff)- 20% reduction through Q3 and then “reviewed from there” for full remaining team

Salary reduction and no bonuses. It works out to be about 20% of my pay. Medical field. It sucks but could be worse. Lucky to be working.

10% for me. Sucks, but I'm fortunate to still have a job.

I have not and probably won't, but wife is having to use PTO. Thankfully she has a lot.

Yet in another post you stated you were buying cigarettes and beer.

If any shred of your BS is true, you should prioritize what you spend $ on.

Maybe you should go hang out under an overpass.

Hate to read this for a lot of people. Wife's vet clinic asked for volunteers to cut back their hours, she is working two days a week.

My company is giving people a 20% differential on top of any existing shift differential. Only applies to hours worked in the plant. A lot of people clamoring for OT but still a few unsettled people that want nothing to do with coming in.

10% salary reduction company wide, and no more 401K match. This came after 25% reduction in workforce. We are about as lean as we can get right now, but I am just grateful to still be working. Feeling for everyone else in a worse off situation. Kills me to see friends and family losing their jobs and stressing.
