Welcome to comp cycles with Aeqium!

Our platform is designed to give you, your leadership, and your FP&A teams a centralized place to collaborate on compensation planning. Instead of your decisions getting lost in spreadsheets, instant messages, and emails, you will be able to work in a single platform that provides you with the data you need to get to the best outcomes for your team.

This guide details Aeqium’s comp cycle functionality, specifically for Reviewers of Reviewers (RoRs). For clarity, an RoR is someone who has direct reports who are reviewers themselves.

Not sure you’re in the right place? Consider reviewing our broader guide, Aeqium for Managers, or visit our Aeqium Help Center for more information!

If you have questions on anything in this guide or comp cycle-related, you can always ask Aeqium Assist (our handy AI assistant) and get an immediate answer!
