Only way it will get sorted is if someone else takes over the contract.That's crazy, You should asked to be bought out of the 'bonus scheme' and give reasons for the request i.e. no targets have been met in 12 years, no staff involvement in achieving the target etc
Makes me realise how fortunate I am, Hope you get sorted.
The current holders (French company who will remain nameless) have lied to the workforce from day one of them winning the contract.
They run a 'Great Place To Work' survey every year and seem constantly amazed at the slating they receive every time. Nothing ever gets done about it, though. They just counter the criticism with things like "Well, we scored highly in things like 'providing a safe work environment'. Yeah! It's against the law not to, you f@cking French loons".
The previous contract holders (German company) ran a 'Wellbeing at Work' week where they provided things like free Spa treatments, massages, free gourmet buffets every day, stuff like that. They also ran a free raffle and gave away prizes like 50-inch Plasma TVs, high-end stereos, kitchen equipment etc.
The current lot also run a 'Wellbeing at Work' week which consists of them sending an email with a list of work-related courses you might like to attend.
A lad I work with got a notification on the 10th anniversary of him starting that there was an award for him on the company benefits website. When he logged in, expecting a voucher or something, he found he had been awarded a 'learning snack'. I mean, what the f@ck is a 'learning snack'?
