Well following the fanfare of the 2.9% recommendation that ended up being 2%, they have announced to slightly less fanfare - i.e none at all, they simply slipped a briefing note out without telling anyone - the 0.9% non consolidated bonus is to be split.

Yep, you heard it right, they aren’t even going to pay the bonus in one go. 2/3 goes on November’s pay statement and 1/3 on March’s statement.

You simply could t make it up. Not content with ignoring the AFPRB, they had a chance to buy back a little bit of goodwill ahead of the most expensive time of the year for most families. And the way they failed to announce it - most people tripped over the Internal Briefing Note which isn’t even mentioned on the MODNET home page - suggests they know full well they’ve got it wrong.
