Taking from the rich, giving to the poor. If you billed 3000 hrs and had a monster year, they will take some of your already massive bonus away. Conversely, if you had a slow year to no fault of your own, they will throw you some extra bonus so you don’t get stiffed at year-end.

I’ve not heard of caps, there have been cases of analysts getting some absurd bonuses as they billed 80hrs a week for a year on a Chpt.11. Robinhooding is usually more focused on bringing up your bonus in a bad year eg say you weren’t staffed on as much (not your fault) or the collections aren’t meant to happen until the following year then they’ll give you a bump so you’re not completely screwed. I’ve got a pdf presentation that summarises everything if you DM me I’ll send it to you.

What is this???

Robinhooding is a pop culture term for stealing from the rich and giving to the poor. I suppose you could consider it a bonus if you're a recipient, but the amount depends on the moneybags who's being robbed.
