Emirates Pay Review - Is it TCAS reborn?

Have those who occupy The Bouncy Castle been taken completely by surprise once again that May closely follows April? Last years message was dated 25th May and the 2014 message was sent 22nd of May. Both are pasted below for your reading enjoyment. Why are on time departures, attendance, reporting, pickup times etc so important, yet the little things we have to look forward to, not so important at all?

"You will be aware that we normally review the salary and benefits for Flight Crew in May each year. Unfortunately, this year we have been unable to finalise the review in time to make changes with the May Payroll. I am however pleased to confirm we will be able to make the changes for the June payroll, with payments backdated to 1st May 2015."

"For you, May is also normally the time we announce any changes to your specific pay elements This year no decision has yet been made as work on the review is still ongoing. This means the only change you will see in your May salary will be your profit share payment."

Taking it that JA sent an email some months ago stating standby for an announcement, I would think it's all worked out.
Seems they just lack the interest in letting us know.

Announced purely to sway those thinking bout resigning with the profit share payment in mind. Bloody lies, smoke and mirrors. Again.

I think that what jatqual is saying is that the 'Pay Review Delay Letter' comes out on about the 24th/25th of May rather than the actual 'Pay Review'...

I thought when JA delayed the March pilot meeting at ETC it would not be a 3 + month delay to the "monthly" meeting.

Goodluck boys and girls, I hope you get a good chunk of change, and as for the Muppet show, who can resist?

Other than the delays of the previous 2 years, is there any suggestion that it is likely to be delayed this year?

"it is likely to be delayed this year?"

My very limited understanding is that changes to the monthly remuneration need to be submitted around the 16th of each month as our 95,000 strong workforce is unable to provide anyone capable of processing such miracles quickly. Hoping I'm very wrong

I feared as much donpiz. I wonder if the 2012/2013 change coincided with the departure of the late SMF, leaving the reigns to STC. If so, it would perhaps suggest that STC may well be a fine SFO but a very very questionable CEO. Yep, technology, that will solve all your personnel issues, combined with

a quote from Sir Richard Branson 'Train people well enough so they can leave, treat them well enough so they don't want to.'

And STC's words

"I want you to be so highly skilled that the best companies in the world will be keen to hire you. But I also want to create such a nurturing, caring and inspiring internal world that you’ll never think of leaving Emirates!"

How can you possibly fail..

It's the committee for moving decimal points to the left, methinks.

If you wish to use words outside your normal vocabulary to critique others , then at least research the meaning .

For being two CEOs presenting the biggest profit ever, both STC and GC looked surprisingly uncomfortable on stage when it was announced on May 10th....

Stone Cold, are you the grammar police? I think we all understood what kingpost said. You must be one of the costa brigade trying to derail the thread. Go back to your latte.
