The Twisted Company Bonus System🤑🔔🙅♂️
Good afternoon, readers!👋
How are you doing today?
The company bonus system has an almost enchanting quality to it.
Each year, it comes with a sense of hope, defined objectives, organised KPIs, and the reassuring notion that if you excel, you will be compensated fairly. Simple. Rational. Just. ✨

Then the bonus arrives. Not surprising. Not awful. Just… meticulously adjusted.
Low enough to make you pause! 🤨
High enough to prevent you from voicing complaints. 😌
You glance at it and think: “Well… alright.” And that’s precisely the intention.
Because the true brilliance of the bonus system lies not in rewarding you, it’s in maintaining your engagement.
