I pointed out last year that they were too quick to criticise, and never offered praise
Since then they've set up a monthly 'Staff Recognition Initiative', which is a pot of £500 awarded to one or two employees who have gone above and beyond the call of duty. I approve, even if I will likely never win it.

I'm not a fan of those sorts of things
And again, it depends on the efficiency of your manager to put you forward for such awards.

It is far better to incentivise than reward (in my opinion), you get better results if people know just what it'll mean to them to get a job done well and on time/budget than it is to say 'oh, well done you, have some free cash!'
