[Fritzo]

Oh yeah----now THAT was a nice suprise. Never saw it coming. I knew we had a good year last year, but not that good! Now I'll have to take back half the things I said about my boss.

yep

 

[Zysoclaplem]

I got $100. Wasn't expecting anything, so it was a very nice suprise.

 

[Demon-Xanth]

I used to get a bonus during my yearly review. I haven't gotten anything like that in the last 3. I think I'm actually making LESS now than I did three years ago.

 

[dabuddha]

At least you get a bonus

 

[Mr N8]

I love this time of the year. Banks stay very profitable, so bonus' are pretty regular.

Well, I get paid twice a month, and the bonus was one month salary (I'm modest, but it was a 4 figure bonus (not including decimals either )).

That's poor. If you're a full time employee and there's more than 4 people in the company, there should be some kind of holiday bonus. Hell, my boss at the catering company I used to work at 15 years ago handed out $100 bills to the employees- and he really couldn't even afford it!

 

[buddry]

I got a free $7 ham.

 

[Qwest]

no bonus...but i got 2 action figures today...haha

 

[conjur]

But you're wife is getting more!

 

[rh71]

you guys get annual bonus on top of a christmas bonus or just one ?

 

[high]

hmm i get my quarterly bonuses + christmas bonuses and my chrismas one was $1500.. quarterly's usually hover there - 3000 as well. Apparently Best Buy treats their employees quite well

 

[phreakah]

boss gave me $2000 bonus and $200 in gift cards to ralphs hehe

 

[Hoober]

Yeah, I get jack for bonuses, too. Academia really blows at times.

 

[KB]

I got a 30 dollar ham. but it was good ham.

 

[Mayfriday0529]

I was at christmas party last night and our CEO didnt say anything, later on our supervisor told us 500$. i was amazed we are getting one.

 

[Bryophyte]

No christmas bonus here, but spouse gets bonuses in January, February, and July. And stock option grants in April. And an extra week of vacation next year for finishing a project. Woohoo

I am making less than I was 3 years ago. When I went back to school I was forced to take a $6k/year paycut and I am still making the same amount I was 3 years ago. I got a Christmas bonus but it was also less than I got 3 years ago.

There are no words to describe how much I hate my job. I've been there 8 years, 6 as a supervisor. I am very reliable (3 total sick days used in the last 3 years), an efficient, hard worker (my work is always done on time and correctly). My reward for that is no raise for the past 3 years and then this week, my internet access was cutoff, and "fun" files I had on my office machine were deleted, and I suspect a keylogger has been installed on the machine. I actually get a headache on my way to work just thinking about being there. I am desperately trying to find a new job for when I graduate in May so I can just walk out of there when the time comes.
