Previous company I would get a yearly bonus, $10k +/-

Started at a new company this year so not sure yet, but hoping for something similar.

Nope. Just curious about what other people get.


Just giving you a hard time since you made it clear your employer is ExxonMobil and you're not getting anything for Christmas.

Unless you work for Saudi Aramco, in which case a Christmas bonus would be a little weird.

My stock options vest in December. I typically just cash those out when they do.

My bonus comes in April.

Not really a bonus. They always give $100. Bonuses are in Q1.

gifts

We get these too. This year is a North Face, puffy vest.

WE also have a blowout Christmas party.

ETA: We also have a catered lunch and a secret santa deal.

Not a Christmas bonus per se, but I get a percentage of my collections as a bonus once I hit a certain amount. In some years, I hit that mark towards the end of the year so it kind of acts like a Christmas bonus. This year, I hit the figure in March, and my bonus will end up totalling 1/3 of my salary. It's been a good year.

We also do a Christmas luncheon and ugly sweater contest. Yay.

We get what amounts to a 10-12% of salary bonus, but don’t get it until February.
They put on a nice holiday party downtown for us
