    I consider it a gift more so than a bonus because it's not that much, but it IS in cash, so that's nice.

    We get actual performance-based bonuses in June but no "Christmas" bonus.

    I have a lot of friends and relatives who work in the oil & gas industry (Texas), and they get ridiculous year-end bonuses. My bookkeeper's daughter is a paralegal, and she gets a serious year-end bonus, too. It still exists in some industries.

    No bonus. But, I work for the local government. I don't expect any bonus. Perhaps some chocolates or a little something if I worked in the corporate world would be nice, but again; not expected.

    My bonus came the same week that my waterline broke to my house and the cost of the new waterline was about the same as my bonus. :- /

    We get taxed big time, too. But...I just had my third year anniversary at my workplace and my bonus doubled, so I'm not complaining this year. :D

    Get a bonus, a pretty darn nice one too. Also get a fancy catered Christmas party where they do a lottery to distribute all the gifts/gift cards that our customers send us for the holidays. I love my job, I love my company :happy:

    We get a quarterly profit sharing bonus, and they move the fourth quarter bonus up a month so that it becomes a Christmas bonus. The amount varies, but it's typically between 16 and 25% of your pay for that quarter.

    Plus I get stock options.

    Fricking love my job... :)

    I mean, my boss usually gives me some sort of whiskey, but that's about the only bonus.

    I get nothing, and I'll like it...ok, I don't like it, but I work for the State of Wisconsin and apparently the tax payers don't want to pay me a bonus, go figure! :sad: :laugh:

    Ditto. Except substitute "province of Nova Scotia" for state of Wisconsin.
