I had my performance review, in which I was told I am “above average” or “outstanding” in every category. It’s also worth noting that I was recently promoted, though my eval was for my previous role.

At the end of my eval, I was told that I would be receiving a “$5.34 bonus” according to their KPI bonus structure, which in my opinion is designed to prevent people from getting a bonus.

I told my boss that I was insulted, and pointed out that they were paying me over 6x that amount for just sitting in the hour long performance eval. I asked for several things, including what the average bonus was (which was denied), what I should have done differently to earn a bigger bonus and what they thought I was actually worth (which also wasn’t answered).

I was pissed, so I went home and decided to frame a $5 bill and put it up at my desk the very next day.

I was pulled into a separate meeting with HR who chastised me for being unprofessional, and ordered me to put the picture frame away.

I am of the mindset to leave it there, and let them take action while I look for other opportunities. I work my ass off in a very high turnover field. I am worth way more than a $5 bonus.

AITA?
