Stupid first world problem, but earlier this year I noticed our vacation tracking system completely didn’t match my paychecks (it’s like they recorded days as hours, but reported it as hours), so they “fixed” it but now it only shows accrued hours instead of time left. My paychecks show time left, so it works, but it just seems to dumb that they don’t align.
Also, I caught payroll messing stuff up like three times now, and I’ve only worked here for 2.5 years. Surely this stuff is automated, so I really don’t understand how it gets messed up. I try to get my tax return to be near $0, but having to account for payroll messing stuff up all the time is annoying.
And then my 401k and HSA contributions almost never get credited on time. My paycheck is always there, so I think this is more on the 401k and HSA end, not payroll. I always get my paycheck at midnight the day before I’m supposed to get it (Fidelity is a Chad), so it’s super consistent from their end. I do regular HSA transfers, and I submitted my recent one the day my paycheck was supposed to land there, and the delays almost caused an overdraft.
I’ve also pointed out multiple times that each of our conference rooms use different equipment, which is just ridiculous for a publicly traded company making hundreds of millions in profit every year. Yeah, we’re not a fortune 500 company, but surely we can afford a little consistency.
I just can’t wait until I no longer need to work for another org. These little papercuts are really starting to get to me. It’s a first world problem for sure, it’s just annoying how inconsistent it is for such a stable org.
