This is a very difficult year for people around the world.
The last 18 months or more have seen the world crushed by Covid-19 pandemic.
During difficult times, Giant Giant Microsoft has announced that it will provide employees of $ 1,500 (approximately Rs 1.12 lakh) to all employees, according to the internal memo seen by the threshold.
Verge’s report said that Microsoft gave employees of this one bonus “in recognition of a unique and challenging fiscal year that Microsoft just finished.” Kathleen Hogan, Chief of the Microsoft tribe, announced a bonus for all employees yesterday.
Bonus, according to the report, will be given to all employees who qualify in the US and also internationally.
However, the bonus will be given to employees who are below the level of the Corporate Vice President.
Even Microsoft part-time employees will be given a bonus.
Giving a bonus for all his employees will cost Microsoft around $ 200 million.
Overall, the company has around 1.75 lakh employees who work for him throughout the world.
Bonuses, however, will not be handed over to employees who work for LinkedIn, Github and Zenimax, although Microsoft has three companies.
A report by CNBC further shows that the bonus is “part of efforts by technology companies to make employees remain happy during a pandemic and make sure they survive while many are still far from the office.” Recently, a trend has emerged that many employees quit their jobs when the office is reopened.
Companies like Facebook, Amazon have also provided some kind of financial incentives and gifts to their employees in the past year.
