we put our salaries in the sheet, realized that it was created on a public to the world spreadsheet, so I copied it to internal.

An important thing I learned during that time: peer bonuses are rewarded at managers discretion. My manager was rejecting all of them.
Wasn't sure if this would be good for the company. Wanted to see what the outcome was. Mind you once a PB is rejected, that can't be undone.

Meanwhile, one of the other people involved, a white dude (good friend I won't name, he can name himself if he wants), was also getting PBs.

His weren't getting rejected. I told him mine were. He was pissed. Wanted to tell everyone what was happening. I declined.

A smattering of people knew what was going on. Backchannels being what they are at former co. (lol IRC
#yallknowwhoyouare), it got around. -
Rejecting PBs was so unheard of, ppl didn't know it was possible. There was outrage when they found out. Shock that I wasn't talking abt it.

Meanwhile, spreadsheet still going, getting spread around, pointed questions being thrown at mgmt about sharing salary ranges (hahah no).

Most people agreed that it was A Good Thing. PBs kept rolling in. Rejections kept rolling out.

One PB eventually got approved. Way after everything died down. Because the person worded it in a way that was vary vague.
-
Any that were outright about the spreadsheet got rejected. 7 total in the end I think?

@EricaJoy that’s wild. what’s the argument for *ever* rejecting one? And the employee just never knows that they could’ve had some extra $$? -
@littlelazer@EricaJoy valid reasons for rejecting: n-th bonus for one thing etc. Guidelines say only approve 1 bonus per fest. -
