Yes, I believe most have ended Christmas bonuses. But much of that is now performance bonuses...

that gets driven by company or personal performance. Timing of payout can really be anytime of year though.

that is the standard

That's pretty generious IMHO.

Holy crap! That is awesome and very generous. Of course the largest bonus any of my employers have given is $50

Dang. I remember that one time in 1997 when I got a Christmas bonus

The closest I've gotten are Christmas dinners/parties.

What are your employees used to getting?

mobomanjoe

11/27/19 10:19am

Some years I've only been able to bonus equal to one paycheck . . .

El Paso Coug

Extremely tough.

My boss gives me a membership to the Jelly of the Month Club.

I'd greatly appreciate that.

I got a box of assorted nuts one year. That certainly lowered my expectations

I've never worked where a Christmas bonus was a thing...

Same

You may need to find a hobby or take a break from CB.

Tokolosh

You could go to a Ute fanboard, just sayin'

I can also stay here. Just sayin’

Is this their annual bonus or something in addition to their annual bonus?

Ozymandias

11/27/19 10:23am

It's their only bonus for the year. I guess I could call it a year end bonus

El Paso Coug

11/27/19 10:26am

Then I think you are probably a bit on the lower end as a full month salary is

Ozymandias

11/27/19 10:29am

We used to just get a book every year. Now we just get a card, nothing more.

CopperLix

11/27/19 10:24am

I think they'd enjoy a memebership in the Jello of the Month Club more.

This is what I always do. My employees love it!

That’s the gift that keeps on giving

Depends on industry and location. Energy industry in Houston uses a different scale.

Texas Hammer

Mine’s about like a week’s pay... It’s in my list of top things to negotiate

JollyGreenGiant

11/27/19 10:27am

EPC, you are a hero. I'll never forget the year I got a bonus of like $3.65 and a piece of Wal mart fried chicken.

Every employee got $1000 bonuses this year at my company. Pretty happy with that

WhirleyPop

Never got a Christmas bonus (unless this is the yearly peformance bonus).

cruiserhead

11/27/19 10:32am

I’m retiring next month after 35 years and have never received a Christmas bonus

ColoSpgs

11/27/19 10:35am

That’s just wrong and sad

BR549

11/27/19 12:59pm

Not complaining; it's been a fabulous ride

Do you think you could have a chat with my boss?

El Careeb

That sounds like it should be sufficient for their needs

Most have ended Christmas bonuses?

Yes, I believe most have ended Christmas bonuses. But much of that is now performance bonuses...

Tokolosh

11/27/19 11:01am

I give both and the Christmas one has nothing to do with performance

2FarGone

11/27/19 11:04am

You will have a revolt if you do this, especially now, right before Christmas.

Ozymandias

11/27/19 11:09am

Or be an awesome outlier that is great to work for.

Tokolosh

11/27/19 11:09am

I was kidding, it isn't going away

2FarGone

11/27/19 11:11am

I’d recommended a 1 year membership to the Jelly of the month club

Nuke

11/27/19 12:07pm

Good for you. We do Christmas bonuses also for everyone. Always have always

Very generous. Probably should tie it to some team goal though

VballDad

Jelly of the month subscription. Very generous of you.

Dr MoBYU

11/27/19 4:10pm

Work for myself my entire life. Never got a Christmas bonus. What you are

I’d say your a pretty generous boss.
