Would You Cut Your Bonus to Aid Your Firm?
Dec 3 2007
So the market's rocky and financial giants are taking billions of dollars in write-downs. Would you trade part of your bonus for better job security?
We asked eFC users whether they'd take a smaller bonus in order to help their firm. The results:
- Absolutely - 9.5 percent
- Only because I have to - 22.9 percent
- I worked, I earned - I expect a full bonus - 53.5 percent
- What happens, happens - 14.1 percent
We're not really surprised by these responses. In fact, they make a certain amount of sense to us. But what do you think - You may have worked hard, but if your bank's s got a sub-prime mortgage problem, do think bonus time is going to as happy this year as it was in 2006? Let us all know...
Not a chance....typically bonus has been so far behind industry / NY standards that I feel the need to catch up...If we experienced such a bad year that coworkers would loose their jobs then I would reconsider.
