Same here. $0.00. But thankful to have full time employment with medical benefits.

 

[Supe]

Yes, a little over $2k. However, it is not a Christmas bonus. They are project incentive bonuses, half of which are paid out in the second to last paycheck of the year, the other halves are accrued and paid out upon project completion.

We got a week's pay, plus a 401k match and the promise of a profit sharing match after the new year once all the books are done. They gave us Xmas Eve off as well.

I worked hard this year, and wore a lot of hats that went beyond the job description, so I'm happy they recognized that.

No bonus at the new job (didn't expect one, as I started just a few weeks ago), but they are upping the 401k match an extra percent next year.

I get no $ bonus as a fed govt employee, but the bonus is that I really have no fear of losing my job. And, I get a raise effective in January.

 

[Ble_PE]

No bonus for me, which is not a surprise since I haven't received one in the 3 years I've worked here. Now I just wonder if there will be raises next year since we didn't get one this year.

 

[Capt Worley PE]

And, I get a raise effective in January.

That's about the only thing I miss about working for the gov.

 

[Fluvial]

My bonus is that I'm still making it as a sole proprietor. I'm very grateful for that !

 

[RIP - VTEnviro]

Our raises will go through 1/1 as well. They are pretty loose about about reviews around here. If you're doing something wrong, you'll hear about it. If you're on point, nobody bothers you.

 

[Road Guy]

No bonus, no raise, lots of new responsibilities but no complaints.

I got entered in the Jelly-of-the-Month Club. (c'mon people, why am I the first to post this?)

 

[RIP - VTEnviro]

Which month is KY the jelly of the month?

I worked hard this year, and wore a lot of hats that went beyond the job description, so I'm happy they recognized that.

Wow. If we wear extra hats it's called "doing our job". If we try to do just what is in our job description as well as possible, instead of watering our time and talents down with other hats, we get called in for a come-to-Jesus talk.

Oh yeah, no Christmas bonus. Of course, we've never gotten Christmas bonuses. If we get a bonus, it's a performance bonus doled out in April. Bust your ass and you may get some chump change.

 

[FLBuff PE]

Which month is KY the jelly of the month?

I think that falls in August this year. It's a dry heat.

 

[RIP - VTEnviro]

A moist heat is preferable at certain times.

 

[FLBuff PE]

Where's PE-ness when we need him? He seems to know about these things.

 

[RIP - VTEnviro]

I hear into his new client pretty deep right now and won't be able post for a bit.

 

[csb]

We get Christmas Eve off, but no bonus and they've already told us no raises this year.

 

[snickerd3]

no bonus for me, cola hits in january, but we lost two people in the section to retirement this month so workloads are going to increase when I go back.

Hubby got a year end bonus of about 1,100.

My sister got surprise bonuses this yr. She got $250 and a satellite radio with speaker docking station and 1 yr subscription.
