Eligibility
Who should be a part of your plan?
Most companies only offer incentive plans to management. Individual employees tend to rotate in and out, while management will usually stay the same across projects.
2.
Calculations and payouts
How big should the payout be?
It’s best practice to choose your desired margin (usually around 15%), and only award a payout if you hit that threshold. You’ll have to determine what that payout looks like per employee (we can help, if you want it).
3.
Criteria and deductions
How do we keep track of performance?
