I see a lot of the employees shouldn't expect bonus.

I get a bonus every year it is based half on my performance and half on company performance. I expect to get a bonus I work 50-60 hours a week and a performer.

I would rather straight salary, but this is how they want to compensate. We had really tough years and I got personal part.

When a recruiter reaches out and I think about a new position I think about that bonus when we talk total comp. I assume that is why I get it they want me thinking what I am leaving on table if I leave.

You have setup expectation of bonus and you waited too late to pull that rug out in my opinion.

You can shite dick your low performers but anyone you want you better take care of.

Bonus should not be something you think you "gave"? When you pay a vendor is it a gift? I am not judging as a small company might literally be a gift that is given to even the undeserving. I am suggesting you change this culture.

This small business "gift" idea makes people not care when it is a bad year. You own the business and still rich in their eyes so if it is a "gift" you can give even if it is a shite year.

It should be part of the compensation formula to encourage exceptional work.

Formula driven is the way corporate does it. I know what my formula is and get it if we are having a bad year. Also it isn't at Christmas it is at our year end March 31st.

It isn't a gift it is a part of my.compensation and something used to induce me to work at my job and keep me .
