A comment on Amazon says wage hike ‘more than compensates’ for loss of bonuses. Parent comment
Basic wage: X
Bonus Wage: A
Market Appreciation: B
Total: X+A+B
Under the new system
Basic Wage: X+Y
Bonus Wage: 0
Total Wage: X+Y
X+Y > X+A
Sometimes, X+Y+Z > X+A depending on if you keep the RSU. But you can always also take Y (the increase) and invest it and it will always be higher.
