With the sharp decline of investment banking and other business, employees of domestic top brokerages have found that their year-end bonuses have been greatly reduced. Recently, reporters learned that CICC has successively announced the 2023 performance evaluation results to its employees and distributed year-end bonuses to them based on the results of the evaluation. Many insiders of CICC told reporters that they generally feel that the proportion of employees rated as low-level performance has increased, resulting in a significant reduction in the year-end bonus received by employees, and even some employees have been "persuaded to leave." In fact, with the impact of factors such as capital market adjustments and the contraction of investment banking business, the era when brokerage practitioners could receive huge year-end bonuses in addition to high monthly salaries has come to an end, replaced by a wave of cost reduction and efficiency enhancement, salary reduction and layoffs.
