The Challenge

When compensation reviews become a nightmare

A Fortune 500 tech company with 12,000+ employees was drowning in their annual review process. What should have been empowering managers had become a source of dread.

⏱️
Endless Review Cycles
Compensation reviews stretched across 6 months, consuming massive amounts of HR bandwidth and creating ongoing uncertainty for employees throughout the year.
😰
Manager Overwhelm
Managers felt unprepared and anxious about compensation conversations, lacking the tools and context needed to confidently discuss pay decisions.
❓
Zero Transparency
