In Reply To: And if your manager doesn't like you, maybe you'll get 1 on your anniversary date. Or if "management" gave out "too many", they take away about a dozen. Both true incidents.
Message: this is true. Taking away certs is a relative practice, though, since you are awarded certs based on a projected pay out value. If your target bonus is $20,000 and this year, that means it will take 20 certs at the projected value of $100/cert, than that's what you get. If next year's projection has the value at $200/cert, then it's completely logical that you would be given just 10 certs to maintain the end projected value ($20K) plus any additional for brownie points. Nobody seems to get that CERTS ARE NOT ASSUMED TO INCREASE IN QUANTITY EACH YEAR.
