And today, getting a holiday bonus is such a rare occurrence most would be shocked if we got one. Or we would be shocked if we received a decent bonus because remember Clark was expecting a bonus so large that it would cover the cost of an inground pool.

We get annual bonuses for annual performance and it’s paid out in Q1. It’s not a Christmas bonus. Not everyone celebrates Christmas. I prefer the Q1 bonus so that I can hit the payroll tax cap faster in the year and get the additional bump in my paychecks for second half.
My bonuses have been $65k+ these past few years.

My bonus is 100%+ of my base and I wish they could just pay it all in salary instead...

I thought my bonuses would be great in consulting. I was severely mistaken. My best bonus in consulting was maybe 13k. My first year exiting to industry, it was 66k. It has never been less than 40k (when I got exactly my target the year I had a baby/ was out on maternity leave). They still exist out there, but can be hard to find! Wishing you many Christmas bonuses to come 🎄

80k last year. Should be about the same this year.
I would find it egregious if I randomly didn't get it.
I don't think i know a single person who doesn't get a significant bonus

If you’re willing to DM, which part of JPM? I’m in conversation with some parts, but would love insider insight

I’ve never had a bonus less than 50% my base. Wild how different things can be yet we live in the same time and places

didnt realize ‘quant’ is so loaded

Used to get around $3K (5 years in role), the year new manager said I didn’t deserve a bonus I was out by Feb

Ive gotten 100k bonuses…

This is an interesting thread. People’s experiences are very different. Most manager+ levels in corporate are getting good bonuses or stock options…
At MS lower level employees get $1000 or so year end bonuses

Lowest bonus. 35 years ago I worked at a grocery store. We got a free turkey.

Biggest, three years ago we were in the throws of being acquired and the company was throwing performance and retention at a few people. That was quite literally insane. My bonuses exceeded my salary. Wife, kids, and myself took a trip to New Zealand.

Right now I’m at 45% of base. This year the company calculus was 127%. So I’m coming in a shade over $110k.

So, I know this story turned out to be fake but I love the idea of employees gathering together to resign after being denied a bonus https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/new-york-ceo-lamborghini/

Moving on from Hotels (Hospitality)?

I’ve been thinking about this for awhile now, but it is very to commit to actually accept a new job offer since I really do love my job. My only complaint is, the pay vs workload is very small. I’m a manager now and my property offered me a director position… but the salary is still low! To make six figures, it’ll take another 5-6 years to grind it out.

Should I move on and go to a different industry? Opinions are welcome! Thanks in advance.

I work as a Business Development Manager at a sports club.. I’ve been given a couple of months “trial” in the 6 figure and above sales in which I don’t see going back to my other role on lower sales. This was a somewhat good move for me until I consider missing out on commission each month that was more than my salary. (£25k salary, over £2k per month commission)
How do I go about raising this concern? I believe I should be paid more now and at least change my job title?
