If this distribution is in the employment contract and it is not being distributed, then the person in charge could be charged with embezzlement. This is a criminal offence as well as a civil offence. The employer had better change her ways before you and all of your team members file a class action suit against her for embezzlement. I would get all the employees together and discuss the matter and then as a group hire a lawyer to confront the employer about her wrong doing. This will get her attention real fast and probably shake loose some of the bonuses. She won't be able to pay all that she owes because she has probably already spent them on herself. Don't try to go this alone. Make it a team effort from all the employees.
Best wishes.

If your boss never told you that you would receive a "bonus", then you really havent a case, and the boss isnt stealing from you. No lawyer is going to take your case, since recovery of $1000 would only pay him $400.
The real estate company is charging the realtors a fee for paper processing, (that i assume you are doing), and they are paying you a salary to do it. Hence, they are in effect paying you the fee, as part of your salary. If your boss isnt keeping the money, and I dont know how he could hide it from the auditors since if he claimed it was going to you, your W-2 would have to reflect it, then there is nothing illegal in what is going on.

Does your state have a Real Estate Commission? They may have standards of ethics and you could report the person there for violating them, but you would need proof, like copies of the contracts, I presume. If you don't have that type of Commission, find out who does the licensing for the realtor and contact them to report her there. They may take action to pull the license. However, be prepared for ALL KINDS of backlash, particularly if you can not give this information anonymously!! There goes the job, for sure.

If you don't have a license you are only entitled to what ever your offer letter stated plus any raises you have received. You are not entitled to anything else unless it has been negotiated. The Licenced realtors know down the penny of what they are being charged for. Realtors are independent contractors and they are treated as such.

Did you sign a contract? If so, what did it say? If not, you will need to get your "second in command" to testify. Let the realtors know what the boss is doing.

If you live in the US you can take the paperwork and show the local realtors association they will take action against a realtor not paying out the proper fees and such.

If she is doing this too more people than just you she is rceceiving unjust rewards. In some states this could be construed as unethical depending on the situation she could be embezzling. Your best course of action to prevent repurcussions is to talk to the second in command about the situation.

When you took the job were you given paperwork explaining the bonuses program? Is there an employee manual that stipulates who gets these bonuses and what they need to do to qualify for them? Courts don't go by he-said/she-said. The best thing to do is find an attorney that's willing to talk to you about it, and see if your second-in-command is willing to talk to the attorney as well.

My boss was a thief too. Many are, and they usually get away with it until they start cutting into the profits of whoever is above them.

Yes privately consult the bbb(better business buro).
report to them about your bosses behavior,and figure out your options.i do not advise telling your boss about this no matter how
tempting,'cause then she might try and fire you.
let me know how this turns out.
