Profit Sharing and Bonus Systems
Here is a short overview of the system I use for profit sharing, end-of-year bonuses, and team reviews within my company.
Year-end bonuses use used to stress me out. And I would spend several additional evenings working in December to figure it all out each year.
When I realized that each December I was making the same decisions over and over, I stopped and decided to implement a clearer system.
Overview of our Profit Sharing system:
- Employee year-end bonuses are based on three factors: (1) employee performance & contributions; (2) employee salary; and (3) company revenue for the year.
-
Bonuses are paid in February the following calendar year. A flat bonus advance is given out on Nov 30 because holidays. ($1,000 for full-time and $500 for part-time.)
-
Pay raises and other salary conversations happen in February of the following year (not December).
-
There is clear documentation of what is expected of each employee for their performance and contributions.
-
There is a clear documentation of what your bonus amount will be based on company revenue and your salary.
-
Employees are aware of the business’ YTD revenue because each cycle we discuss revenue targets and share total numbers, so there are no surprises.
