I'm five years in, handling recruitment and payroll for a 90-person company . Currently on 1,300 USD plus transportation. Half my friends say that's fair for this market, the other half tell me I'm underpaid for the workload. What are people actually seeing this year — and is anyone still on a split-currency package?

Budget is tighter than last year but management wants something meaningful, not a token. Ideas so far: a cash bonus, a supermarket voucher, a Purpl gift card, or closing the office the full week between Christmas and New Year. Honestly wondering whether people would take the extra days over the box.

We're still paying a flat daily amount set eighteen months ago and it no longer covers a return trip across the city. Options on the table: raise the flat rate, index it to fuel, or move to a monthly lump sum and stop tracking attendance days. Curious what other companies landed on — especially those with staff commuting from outside the city.
