Porsche Employees Take Home $10,000 Bonus Check
Due to strong performance by the automaker in 2018, profit sharing programs rewards Porsche employees with cold, hard cash.
Porsche employees will soon receive their bonus checks for 2018, and it going to a big one. Thanks to an outstanding year for sales, employees will receive checks of about $10,900 for their efforts. The bonuses will go out to 25,000 Porsche AG employees this April.
“2018 was extremely challenging, and stretched our team to the limits at times,” said Oliver Blume, Chairman of the Executive Board of Porsche AG. “Despite this, we were still able to exceed the previous year’s excellent figures for revenue, profit and deliveries, and to launch yet more outstanding vehicles onto the market.”
2018 was driven by the debut of the eighth generation of the iconic 911, which debuted at the Los Angeles Auto Show this past November. The production of the Taycan was also an important factor.
“It’s all the result of a great team effort, and we are really proud of our colleagues.” said Blume. “The passion and commitment they show every day will stand the Porsche brand in excellent stead for the coming years.â€
The fixed-rate profit sharing program ensures that all employees are rewarded, no matter their role. Andreas Haffner, Member of the Executive Board for Human Resources said “That’s our understanding of equal opportunity; we know that every single employee in this company contributes towards its success, and our approach to these bonuses reflects that awareness.”
