Christmas bonuses . . . .

[VoteQuimby]

Our President just gave me a $30 giftcard to Ace Hardware . . . seriously . . . I guess it is a step up from the previous year's gift wrapped maple syrup.

I didn't get laid off.

$50 to the borders downstairs from our office... and I'm only an intern!

Edit: Personal gift from head engineer boss guy, only gave them to his department.

The same thing I've got since 2002. Jack shit. I will however get to look at the upper management's 6 figure bonuses in a few months to see how much they pulled in while convincing the other 495 people in the company that we're lucky to get raises that are half of the inflation figure for the 4th year in a row.

I got the assurance that they will not be laying off people off in 2009.....We are supposed to get a bonus...bur not until Feb (they want to calculate years performance first).

Surely, I am surprised I still have a job. I was on 2 multi million dollar projects and managed to F up both (one went waaayyyy over budget,,,the other had some pretty bad mistakes). I guess I was forgiven though since I am new.....

This type of crap is what ticks me off. Our "suits" get nice yearly bonuses while the people who do the actual work get jack.

I got 3% of my gross salary.
But I'm a govt. contractor so I'm underpaid than a govt employee at the same level I am working for as a contractor. The 3% makes it help a little but still underpaid

 

[nace186]

I got nothing.

anyone who is not in upper management is underpaid.

I got 2 $100 american express gift checks. That's $200 more than I thought I would be getting. Last year it was $500.

 

[tfinch2]

We don't get our bonus until February.

Bingo.

 

[duragezic]

Not so much a specific Christmas bonus, but I was told I get $500.

The yearly COL/merit raises are based on a performance review which hasn't happened yet so I'm not sure how I fare there.
