Why do many workplace winners choose to resign before they get the year-end bonus?

Why do many workplace winners choose to resign before they get the year-end bonus?

I received calls from two headhunters one after another, because I was not interested in the position and didn't take it to heart. Tell a friend about it and ask her if she will jump if there is a good position in front.

She smiled contemptuously: "Do you really regard me as a retarded group who treats money like dirt?" It's almost the end of the year. Who can jump? Be sure to say it after the year. "

I asked again, "Then why are headhunters so active now?"

She tactfully replied: "Is it because the boss is distressed by the year-end bonus, so he sent them to dig a hole?"

Haha, that's all, I just tell you: just because most people are staring at the year-end bonus like you, a few people take advantage.

Every two months before the Spring Festival, a procrastination called "Let's talk about it in the New Year" began to spread. The first infected people are those who want to change jobs but haven't succeeded yet.

So, no matter how they treat the company as a fire pit, they all start to behave themselves with their tails between their legs, thinking, "Don't show the idea of job-hopping, so as not to get less year-end awards." "If you get the year-end award, you will resign, otherwise you will lose a lot."

For the company, it can't be idle for two months to wait for the Chinese New Year. The project to be launched is still to be launched, and the recruitment is still to be recruited. Some companies even predict the turnover tide after the year by experience, so they publish job vacancies in advance; In some industries, the peak season is Spring Festival. We're not hiring now. When will we wait?

Therefore, in a whole year, this is the most unbalanced period of talent supply and demand, which is also the reason why headhunters should show their talents. Those who are more capable often feel comfortable in the original company and will naturally stick to the generous year-end bonus, which makes some guys who might have been just spare tires but were willing to "wield knives" seize the opportunity.

My old classmate with a bright future in banking jumped ship to another bank a few days ago. He mentioned several advantages of leaving before the year-end bonus, which I think is quite reasonable:

First of all, I have a chance to talk about higher salary.

It is of course the best of both worlds to negotiate years ago and arrive at the post years later, but if not, then I will give up the six-figure year-end bonus to report for duty, and there is every reason to propose compensation conditions. Facts have proved that people's hearts are all meat, so we added 3% to our original monthly salary. In the long run, the increased income will definitely exceed the year-end bonus.

Secondly, you can get a better impression.

What kind of loyalty is it to give up the year-end bonus and worry about the other party's urgency? !

Once again, leave a goodwill to the old club.

For my boss and superiors, my job-hopping is definitely an unpleasant thing, not to mention my own competitor. Although the year-end bonus is the wool sweater that the boss cuts off from you every month, it is a kind of resentment to jump up after getting the year-end bonus; Jump without receiving the year-end award, leaving a beautiful legend.

Besides, the value of time is far more valuable than the year-end bonus.

If the career is calculated as 30 years, it is only 360 months. If weekends and long holidays are removed, it is only about 240 months. At this thought, I really can't bear to waste two whole months on my old job that has become a chicken rib. Moreover, compared with those who arrived after those years, I started running two months earlier. I'm a newcomer, too, and I'm obviously one step ahead.

Finally, whether you can make a quick decision at this time can best verify the weight of your new job in your heart.

If it is true love, you can naturally risk your life. If you look forward and backward, it shows that your new job is not very attractive to you, and your old job is not as unbearable as described in your inner play. In other words, you have no reason to resign.

Many people quit just to have a better reputation, a better position and a higher salary in the new company, and then regret it after jumping, or soon fall into slack in the old company. Such a person will definitely not jump ship before getting the year-end bonus.

From such things, we can also see a complex way of thinking.

First of all, if you want to be better than most people, you must think much more and think far than most people.

If you think too much, you will comprehensively judge the situation, find a more favorable path, and see the "blue ocean" of job-hopping years ago.

In fact, most people dare not even think about it. In their minds, there has never been a drama of "job hopping years ago VS job hopping years later". They just followed the big troops and poured into the horrible "red sea" of the talent market after the year without looking up.

If you think long, focus on the whole career planning. Most people just think that holding the year-end bonus is better than this year, and how to spend it next year will be discussed. Excellent people think about how to live better every year, why not sacrifice a year for it?

Secondly, you should evolve your understanding of money.

Many people's views on money are actually quite confusing. In order not to be late for work, they will run a red light under the wheels and risk their lives for customs clearance at the cost of being "20 late".

During the trip, they will spend hundreds more because of flying, and would rather sacrifice their precious time in the long vacation to go all the way, thinking that they are small experts in saving money.

They know that a new computer can improve their efficiency, but they always tell themselves to wait until they have enough money, and they go to restaurants to eat a rare tooth every few hundred times.

They only judge gains and losses by the amount of money in their hands, instead of focusing on the total wealth that can be created in the next three to five years, and they have not converted money into the same value as time, opportunity and life.

Stanford University has done the famous "marshmallow experiment". The researchers gave a group of 4-year-old children a marshmallow and told them that if they didn't eat it within 15 minutes, they would get a second piece. As a result, only one third of the children can do it.

Follow-up analysis shows that those children who know how to "delay satisfaction" are more successful than other children because they are more self-disciplined and know the value of waiting-if the year-end award in front of them is a marshmallow, if you don't eat it now, you can get more marshmallows next year. What choice would you make?

The reason is clear, but not everyone can hold back the saliva flowing to their mouths.

The most important thing is your determination and action.

If you still can't live a good life after listening to a lot of preaching, it's because you always make the simplest and most comfortable choice and know what is right.

So I know I will be late, but I still choose to lie down for a while; Knowing to exercise, or choosing to nest on the sofa; Knowing that years ago is a good time to jump ship, you still have to get the year-end bonus.

I have witnessed people around me, claiming that every year after the Spring Festival, the track will change, and all kinds of analysis are well-thought-out. But as soon as they got a good year-end award, those brave words vanished with last year's kitchen god.

In this way, year after year, he stayed in the company where he complained for more than ten years! From a daze to a bright forehead, and as long as the company does not fail, it is likely to stay until it has grandchildren.

The slower you move, the higher your decision-making cost.

When your life is familiar, when you have your own accumulation in the original company, when you have your own family, and when you get the year-end bonus back every year, the cost of your job-hopping will gradually increase. The more you dare not move, the more you will never move again.

When your monthly salary is 3 thousand, it is also the time when the cost of job-hopping is the lowest.

If you feel that you have to go to work every day, if you can't learn anything in this company, if what you are doing now can't add any bright color to your resume, don't hesitate to jump ship immediately!

How much can your year-end bonus be? Treat yourself to a future dinner.
