I don't have a paying job but when I used to work, no bonus.

If free Post-It notepads, free Papermate pens and free paperclips count as bonuses, then "yes", my job offers a bonus.  * winking raspberry *

Yes, it's based on yearly sales. It usually equals to about 4-8% of our yearly income.

We get it around Feb/Mar.

If you have low scores on reviews or too many days missed, you don't get it.

Whoa. Cash you keep. A company car you have to return. Do you see a company car as a performance incentive? Do you mean a company car you don't have to return? I want to work for THAT company!

A car and a bonus. Although the latter won't be much as this is my first year at this company.

My job had paid holidays and vacations, along with a 401k plan. But they wiped all of that out as the economy got worse.  * frown *

My company has an excellent bonus plan, work all week without screwing up, and they will let you work next week.

We get bonuses when there's extra money in the budget. Last year I only got about $100, because we used almost all of our profits. This year I got almost $700 because we had fewer expenses.

Everyone at work gets the same amount for their bonus. Because of the sector day cares fall under here we're not allowed to have a profit (what we make in a year must be used in that year). Our centre chooses to use that money for bonuses, but not all do.

Yeah, I work at home - that in itself is a bonus! No traffic!

Yes and no. I'm self-employed, so the harder I work, the more bonuses I give myself!

Yeah, but it's built in to my regular paycheck every two weeks. They tell you in January how much it will be for the year. Doesn't seem so much like a bonus that way instead of one lump sum a year.

This is such a complicated question where I work that I don't know if I should laugh or cry or both.

But I'm a pee-on so I don't get those bonuses.

No. I guess tenured professors can be eligible for merit raises, which are basically performance incentives. But I'm not in a tenure-track position.

Not this year. GM is over half of our sales.  * frown *

I think the feds should pay the automotive industry to make mag-trains and electric bicycles with trunks and rain canopies.

Radio people are worried that the feds bought out Citi Bank. Have they not considered that the opposite happened?

I'm a student. I don't think that occasionally getting 10% student discount counts...
