Description

Innovative approaches to compensation planning require more than a simple merit matrix. But adding too many metrics and formulas can easily overwhelm managers and confuse employees. In this session, you'll hear about Instacart's journey to educate and engage managers and maintain a clear focus on rewarding results. RedCAT Systems’ Chad Atwell and Instacart’s Mia White and Andrea Ayala will give their first-hand perspectives on rewarding employees for their contributions, simplifying manager decision-making, and promoting transparent pay practices.
