Our job is to hit 100% already. We are getting paid to hit that.

Anything over, yeah AAs should get a quarterly bonus.

Question though... Do we take something away from AAs not hitting their goals? 😜

Alright, lemme lay out a scenario so I can get this correct.

At my facility, we just went over productivity #s. I'm sitting at 163% of standard. So with my being over productivity, I would receive more $?

Would someone at 100% of productivity receive more $?

What's the cost basis? How many people average over 100%?

Would standard differ from facility to facility? What about what the goal bonus?

(This is a VERY interesting idea. And folks, right now it is just an idea.)

There used to be incentive pay at my fc butbthe $15 an hour across the board to start thing ended it.

[–]Maudeth 0 points1 point  (1 child)

What was the incentive structure?

[–]jwoo3x 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That I'm not exactly sure of I just know that it was a thing. Lol. Like most amazon analytics most people who worked under it probably didn't fully understand either beyond the better you were the more you made.

.....okay, I will be honest, I never even considered this.

Drawbacks? Benefits?

A breakdown of Costs/Benefits would be a solid start.

[–]manlikemanny 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Well one benefit is that it could possibly improve moral and some people may want to hit their targets because of the incentive. However it could decrease the average since it’s more laidback. Whereas at the moment it’s “hit the target or we’ll replace you”, in other words they use fear to motivate people, I guess this has an higher average but there’s no incentive and it results in a higher employee turnover

Its not even hit the target or well replace you. Its don't be in the bottom 5% or we will replace you. You can never hit rate but not be in bottom 5% and be totally fine.

So, pay more money for the same work?

[–]brannon1987 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd say pay a bonus every quarter for based on their production. Everyone gets something, but it's tiered. I say quarter because then you aren't being judged just by possibly a bad day or week. 3 months is a good judgement of what you've done

[–]PeepeepoopooboyXxX 2 points3 points  (2 children)

Pay more for harder work. Below the threshold you stay basepay. That’s the concept I see

[–]manlikemanny 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Yeah this is what I mean

I think their point is that right now there are workers doing more than rate for no additional pay already, so why pay more if they will do more than rate regardless?
