What's the worst Christmas Bonus/Gift everyone has received from their employer? This year the upper management team gave us all a $10 gift card to Jimmy Johns and a card from like WalMart. We had an amazing year in terms of profits, pretty frustrating

Normally we get a $25 Amazon gift card which is insane because we are a multi-billion dollar corporation who also had a great year. However, this year we got branded sweatshirts. I was thinking about how much money they saved by giving us these because they are very cheap quality.

I worked for an internet company that would give us branded swag for Christmas and some of that stuff was pretty bad. We always assumed it was stuff that was too awful to hand out at trade shows. This year I got a gift card from my current employer, which was nothing great but better than something utterly useless.

One key selling point, as they are trying to offer is the opportunity to work one day a week to use for things like training, acquiring certifications or building applications that you are interested in.

This sounds amazing. I don't get that at my current job. So, is this too good to be true? I would like your opinion on this.
