Everyone that has left has significantly increased their compensation (speaking for myself I did 25% in base alone and also rec'd equity grants). The biggest gripes I have is when Lionbridge was sold to HIG. All of the executives/upper management cashed in big time for a company whose best way of generating operating cash flow was via restructuring (offices, employees, etc.). All of their unvested stock became 100% vested including performance shares, which at the time had significant forfeiture percentanges due to lack of performance metrics being attained. They also accrued 100% of their bonus plans and in the end a lot of folks got nothing. Needless to say, after these events I looked for a new position and am happy with my decision. This review may sound similar to "boo-whoo", but I was not the only employee who felt this way.
