Home Box Office Inc (HBO) rewards employees by using a merit pay system which helps employees to understand why base salary levels are assigned and what types of merit raises can be expected. Every year, managers have a goal setting sessions with employees. Goals are reviewed midyear, and then performance reviews are conducted in relation to objectives by using a rating system which sets minimum and maximum ranges for every position. The personnel department provides managers with a number of tools for employee evaluation, including evaluation reports and year-to-year comparison figures. In addition, the personnel department helps facilitate bonus administration by developing and distributing bonus worksheets and by running reports for review by senior management.
