Christmas bonuses . . . .

[JoPh]

$50 gc to the place i work.

 

[Danman]

I get quarterly bonuses based on my performance. I don't believe we get holiday bonuses....even though we are beating our forecast for this quarter.

 

[ViviTheMage]

My christmas bonus is in July, and they can't give us giftcards anymore due to the IRS deeming them as 'taxable income' so they have given us a good pat on the back, and candy canes

 

[ArizonaSteve]

Bonus? Here? Hahahahahahahaha!

But as some people are saying, I was not included in the layoffs last month, so I'm grateful for that.

Fixed.

I'm an intern and am glad I didn't get laid off. Times are tough, be happy for the things you have.

 

[queenrobot]

200 dollars, and I get to keep my job as well.

 

[Geekbabe]

A several days long wait to find out if I've got enough seniority to keep my job. I'll know sometime next week. Merry Xmas.

 

[SMOGZINN]

I don't have to wear a tie the rest of next week. I'm serious, that is what they are replacing charismas bonus with, their rather conservative version of business casual for 3 days.

 

[Sheik Yerbouti]

not a fucking thing.

 

[ggnl]

Just my regular 15% quarterly bonus.

 

[AntiFreze]

no bonuses at my company... I cant complain though, we just had a huge holiday party, free education, good pay, excellent job security, but was still hoping for some kind of holiday bonus.

Come in with just a tie on. Show 'em who is boss.

We ha $20 Meijer gift cards attached to our paychecks. That's a pretty big bonus since we are in the auto industry :laugh:

 

[Kev]

I got pre-laid off. The told me I have 3 months. Fun times.

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.

Same here. What's a Christmas bonus?

I was told back in August that I would be receiving a qualification bonus for some internal company qualification tests that I passed. I've been told "the check's in the mail" since then. Not sure when that will ever show up. $4k before taxes. Probably a cup of starbucks after the government is done.

 

[vi edit]

It's not a Christmas bonus by title, but we get it every year around the second week of December so it may as well be called one. It's a performance based award for various employee activity participation and meeting departmental budgets for the fiscal year.

I think it was around $375 this year.

 

[Tweak155]

$300 (cash) + 2 paid days off work.

Last year was $250 + 2 days off work.

Year before that was $500 best buy gift card (but I wasn't in this position quite yet, so I didn't get one).

I'm supposed to get an annual bonus every July or so (up to $13.2k) but I haven't received anything but about $200 since the economy sucks and I joined this role late. We already expect $0 in 2009.

 

[rudeguy]

I got the 5 vacation days that I was owed. Its not much, but I am very grateful.

I DIDN'T get the $10,500 "recruitment incentive" that I was supposed to get today via direct deposit. I was supposed to get it today since I have stayed on the job for 6 months. I have a contract signed by the federal government indicating that they would give it to me today. They are giving money to random companies and crap but not making good on their own financial obligations. Can't say I'm surprised. I guess the honeymoon will literally have to pay for itself, so I'll be whoring myself out in the Caribbean in a month if anyone is around.
