Gorilla Offered 10 Per cent Hike To Employees On Notice Period

U.S based marketing company Gorilla Offered a 10 Per cent hike to employees on notice period.
Jon Franko, the founder of the company wrote on LinkedIn "From the moment an employee tells us of their decision to leave Gorilla and that they are in the search for a new job, any full-time employee who gives us at least six weeks' notice will be given a 10% salary increase for the remainder of their time at Gorilla. We ask that they leave within three months. And we promise, no hard feelings."

He further said this action will benefit those workers who feel trapped in the company."This encourages our people to do something different if they're feeling stuck or in the wrong place. It also gives us time to prepare for how we'll move forward. It's way better than the normal two-week sprint".
Mr Franko claims that although they would not want their staff to leave, "we are fools to expect that they will all retire with us".He added, "our strategy is to make transitions as seamless as possible."

The Founder further added, "Recently, this was exercised by one of our own. Great person, a great Gorilla, and extremely talented in the role. But, he was ready for something different. So, he came to us, told us he was seriously looking, and that he would be gone within three months. We "shook hands", bumped his salary by 10%, and began our search. We've found someone to fill the role, the departing employee has some great leads and we'll be working with both to prep for a smooth transition."
