Has anyone planned on quitting, but used vacation time to meet a bonus date before submitting your notice? Starting school this fall but don’t want to miss out on my bonus in sept. Is this unethical?

If it is ethical to delay previous year’s performance bonus for 6 months just so that employees stay longer, then what you are planning on doing is also ethical.

Very true C1, hadn’t thought of it like that!

Your employers, throughout your life, will pinch pennies wherever they can as long as they think you won’t quit. They won’t care if it makes your life worse. Don’t feel bad about screwing a massive corporate entity out of, at most, several grand.

As written in your employment contract, the firm can terminate you any time of their choosing, and you can also quit just the same. Where is the ethical dilemma?

like

Do you have enough vacation saved to cover two weeks past the date bonuses pay out? If so, then you are golden. If not, it gets a lot stickier.

Only unethical if you lie about intent to come back. You earned the vacation, if taking it means you’ll still be active when bonuses pay out, go for it.

Thanks for not giving a typical ‘partner’ answer 😊. I appreciate the honesty

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?

So, if you work at TD, Scotia, RBC, could you let everybody know in the comments what’s the deal for each? Are you remote, on-site, hybrid of some sort?
