The New Jersey-headquartered firm, in a statement, said it will also be paying bonuses to eligible associates in mid-March.
"Merit increases for eligible associates will be awarded in August, exactly one year after the prior cycle. In fact, with the August 2025 cycle, the majority of our associates will receive five merit increases within the past four years. There has been no delay in the merit cycle, and any claims to the contrary are incorrect," the company said.
The company remains steadfast in its commitment to recognising the hard work and dedication of its associates through merit increases and bonuses, it added.

Union minister Jitendra Singh on Tuesday said the goal to generate 100 GW nuclear power by 2047 is ambitious and achievable, and state-run Nuclear Power Corporation of India Limited (NPCIL) and its subsidiaries aim to fulfill nearly half of that target.
Addressing a post-budget webinar organised by NITI Ayog, Singh said India's electricity needs are expected to increase four to five times by 2047 and renewable energy sources alone cannot meet the base-load demand.
He said nuclear energy will play a key role in meeting India's energy needs in the future.
Singh, as Minister of State in the PMO, oversees the Department of Atomic Energy.
"Achieving 100 GW of nuclear power will require a focused and determined approach, adding around four  GW annually from now onwards," he said, expressing confidence in meeting the goal with proper planning and execution.
He said the Union Budget 2024-25's vision for India's nuclear power expansion has set a target of achieving 100 GW by 2047.
