Well, just found out we're not getting one.. WHAT CRAP. :disappoin This is the 2nd year in a row.

I work for a small company...but even still, we brought in about 10 million this year...


Fucking bullshit. Even if they gave everyone $500, that would be a nice gesture....talk about ruining employee morale :disappoin

Dont feel bad i have been getting one for the last three years with a company trip to AC paid for but i dont think im getting shit this year. Sadly there was some huge fallout with the boss's here and buisness has hit the shitter. Going form 2 mill a month to maybe 20,000 sux we only had 7 employess. Thank god i have shit to fall back on when thsi ride is over looks like ill be a union man for a bit.

I have noticed companies do this when they KNOW they can get away with it. Are people looking for new jobs, and or complaing to the point where they want to quit?

Don't worry snowangel....i dont get a bonus either...fucking sucks but what can you do...

Not sure everyone knows just yet....My boss just pulled me in and we ranted together...two years ago we got a LITTLE bonus...like 1 week's pay...but still, it shows employees you appreciate them and you're thanking them for their work all year. Between the small number of employees and giving a small amount, its like pocket change to the CEO...

I'm not going anywhere just yet but probably within the next 6-8 months will start looking....between our horrible medical benefits and this, it' sjust BULLSHIT

they give it late on purpose because a/january is a big hiring month and b/they figure you ll stay if you've already accrued time towards next years bonus.

Agreed. In fact all the recruiters emailing me are like I'll talk to you after your bonus.

Some companies, however, offer signing bonuses (so this can offset the pain of boucning early) I would never walk away from my bonus but thats because it is 5 figures. If I was getting like an 8 grand bonus I wouldnt care about it but when you get to a certain point your bonus is so huge they use it to totally control you.

That's not true. Actually some companies gurantee a bonus. Especially financials where bonus can be as much as 20% of your base. Exact reason I would never leave without it and companies know this and it allows them to really control the options.
