Some netizens exposed: the year-end award of a department of WeChat is 2 billion, with a per capita of 2.8 million!
According to Sina Science and Technology, on January 25th, a number of netizens posted a Weibo saying that the year-end bonus of WeChat was 2 billion, with an average of 2.8 million per capita.
According to sources, WeChat gave employees a red envelope of 2,888 yuan and an iPhone XS Max (512G), and the salary was raised four months in advance.
Netizens joked that "other people’s year-end award series" and "other people’s companies never let me down".
Tencent Zhang Jun rumors: wake up!
It is impossible to get a year-end bonus of 2.8 million per capita.
Soon after, Tencent’s public relations director Zhang Jun blamed:
"Today, my circle of friends is worrying about # WeChat Year-end Award #. The little friend immediately went to check the bank card, haha. But, don’t get excited. What I want to tell you is that it’s true that the year-end bonus has increased. I don’t know how much. It’s not time to pay it yet. 2.8 million per capita? That’s impossible, wake up! "
However, judging from Zhang Jun’s response, the year-end bonus of WeChat has indeed increased.
In fact, under normal circumstances, in order to motivate employees, many companies will issue year-end awards in various forms at the end of the year.
Year-end awards are distributed in different forms in different units. In addition to the "red envelope" in the general sense, some are stock dividends, some are "double pay", some are commissions, and some are bonuses.
However, this year, many people reported that the year-end bonus, which was originally opaque, "ran away without even a shadow!"
According to Zhaopin’s recruitment report, 55.17% of the white-collar workers who participated in the survey said they could get the year-end award, which was significantly lower than 66.1% in 2017. In 2018, the overall average of the national white-collar year-end awards was 7,100 yuan. Only 39.10% of white-collar workers’ year-end bonus income has increased, which is flat at 45.35% and decreased at 15.55%.
And some companies’ year-end awards make netizens envy and hate!
Let’s take a look together.
"Other people’s year-end awards"
At the evil moment of the annual year-end bonus, does someone else’s year-end bonus make you doubt your life again?
For example, on the 17th, Fangda Carbon (600516), a listed company, distributed 30,000 yuan red envelopes to all employees on the spot. At the same time, it is decided that two new employee welfare policies will be implemented, namely, "employees’ monthly basic salary will be increased by 50%" and "1000 yuan’s/monthly filial piety allowance".
On January 19th, in the factory area of Fangda Special Steel (600507) in Nanchang City, Jiangxi Province, more than 300 million yuan in cash was piled up into a "Qianshan" to distribute year-end awards to employees. The enterprise has more than 5,000 employees, each of whom can receive an average year-end award of 60,000 yuan.
According to reports, the company issued a year-end bonus of 30,000 yuan to each employee last year, which doubled this year. An employee at the scene said happily: "There are so many bonuses, I don’t know how to spend them."

On January 8th, Dong Mingzhu, the chairman of Gree Electric (000651), announced a salary increase for employees. The total salary increase was less than 1 billion, and the average monthly salary increase for employees was about 1000 yuan. She said that employees in Gree Electric did not feel the trouble of economic downturn. "When employees are creating wealth, how can they still worry about their lives? How can they do their work well?" Through active enterprise independent measures, we will stabilize people’s hearts and convey the corporate values of sharing weal and woe to employees, so as to make better preparations for the development in 2019.

On January 16th, the biggest prize drawn at Sina’s annual meeting was 2000 shares of Sina. According to the current Sina share price of 59 dollars per share, 2000 shares are converted into RMB, totaling 797,600 yuan.
According to Entrepreneurial State, American e-cigarette company Juul Labs took out $2 billion as the year-end bonus, and each of the 1,500 employees could get an average of $1.3 million (equivalent to 8.95 million yuan). In fact, e-cigarettes from Juul Labs are very popular in the United States, with a gross profit of 75% and a market value of $38 billion.
And these wonderful year-end awards
Of course, some companies are more stingy, and the "wonderful" year-end award makes employees laugh and cry.
There are eggs, pork and oil full of "annual flavor";
There are also intimate warm-keeping items, such as towels, socks, clothes and quilts;
There are also benefits that make people laugh and cry, such as condoms, sanitary napkins and toilet paper.
In fact, the "wonderful" benefits issued by enterprises far exceed the imagination of ordinary people. Although white-collar workers are willing to laugh at themselves, their hearts are full of sadness and helplessness. As the year is approaching, corporate benefits should be more sincere and warm.
It is said that the year-end bonus of these companies has shrunk.
1. Didi: cancel the year-end bonus for senior executives and half the year-end bonus for employees.

It is understood that Didi’s 2017 year-end award is divided into ABC three files, with A level being 6 months’ salary, B level being 4 months’ salary and C level being 2 months’ salary. Some employees received a year-end award of 40,000 to 50,000 yuan in 2017.
In 2018, Didi has been in the water.
According to the financial data of Didi Chuxing, the loss in the first half of 2018 rapidly expanded to 4.04 billion yuan, 61% more than the loss of 2.5 billion yuan in 2017. In the first half of 2018, Didi’s gross profit margin was 1.6%, down 0.3% from 1.9% in 2017.
In the face of such cruel and cold data, in December 2018, Didi CEO Cheng Wei announced at the general meeting that the "reward" was halved, and the executives collectively did not take the year-end award.
2, ofo is heavily in debt, even wages are a problem.

Companies that fall into the same water as Didi, as well as ofo invested by Didi.
This year’s ofo has been reduced from 3,400 in the boom to about 400 now. Dai Wei is on the white list of "restricted consumption orders", so he can’t fly or take high-speed trains. Difficulties in cash withdrawal, layoffs, debts, etc. have become the main theme, not to mention the year-end bonus. ofo employees may not even know where the future is.
3. On the social platform, employees of JD.COM and Meituan have shrunk their year-end awards anonymously.
At the end of 2017, JD.COM said that in 2018, the year-end bonus for every employee should be doubled. However, in recent days, an employee of JD.COM anonymously posted a message on the Internet, saying that the company cancelled the two-month year-end bonus.
Some people posted on the internet that the worst performance of the US delegation in the year-end assessment is at least 10%, and the highest performance can reach 20%. These people’s year-end awards will be greatly reduced. There are also employees of Meituan who said that some colleagues have heard the news of the cancellation of the year-end award.
However, it remains to be verified how the year-end awards of these companies are distributed.
The year-end bonus reflects the pattern of a company.

Ma Yun once said that there are only two main reasons for employees to leave their jobs: not giving enough money and being wronged.
From the professional point of view of human resources, there are two considerations for enterprises to issue year-end awards: commending head employees, motivating waist employees and controlling turnover rate. To hold an annual meeting, one is to inherit the corporate culture, and the other is to enrich the welfare of employees. But at the same time, there are several main defects in the year-end award model:
1, basically can not meet the expectations of employees for annual income.
2. The motivation is very poor.
3. It belongs to the welfare cost of chicken ribs.
4. Because of the frequent unfair distribution, it brings a lot of internal friction.
5. One of the main reasons for employee turnover after the Spring Festival.
The year-end bonus may have some disadvantages, but it also has a great incentive effect on employees. At the same time, the year-end bonus also reflects the company’s welfare level, operating conditions and management philosophy. Whenever major companies give generous year-end awards, there are always netizens who comment that they want to work in these companies, which also plays the role of job advertisements.
Haidilao, which was successfully listed in 2018, broke through HK$ 100 billion in market value and became the fifth largest catering enterprise in the world. What is the success of Haidilao? Undoubtedly, it depends on service. Why can the service be so extreme? The secret is the words of founder Zhang Yong: "Talking about money is the best respect for employees."
Compared with products, funds and temporary profits, excellent, loyal employees who are willing to grow with the company are the greatest wealth of the enterprise. The time and material cost required to train such an employee, as well as the rich returns he may eventually bring to the enterprise, are not visible to short-sighted bosses.
Indeed, in this cold winter, it is not only the founder who is sad, but also his employees who have to work with the company to overcome the difficulties. If they are not fired, they will be awarded the year-end bonus.
According to the 2018 White-collar Year-end Award Survey Report, in 2017, nearly 60% of white-collar workers made it clear that the year-end award would affect their job-hopping decision. In 2018, less than 40% chose "yes", and the number of white-collar workers who chose "maybe" increased significantly.
In the tide of the internet, no one can judge what the next outlet is, and who will disappear silently. The huge year-end bonus once given to employees may be one of the highlights in their lives.
But don’t be discouraged. There is a saying in the movie "The Dark Hour": "There is no ultimate success or fatal failure. What matters is the courage to move on."
