I am preparing to resign from my current job last day is 12/21, am I still eligible for a year end bonus?

Answer 1

If you want your bonus, stay with your office a bit longer. They are under no obligation to reward you when you are leaving them.

Answer 2

Bonuses are usually presented to employees still on the payroll as of the date the bonus is to be distributed., who have met the minimum length of employment . In my books, year end is not 12/21, but 12/31. and if you were not officially on the payroll at that time you would forego the bonus process even though you may have contributed heavily to its success.

Answer 3

That would be a big no. You are quitting before 12/31/07, and this would be a requirement in order to qualify for the bonus.

Answer 4

Normally, year-end bonuses are paid on the next payday after the end of the first pay period of the following calendar year. Since you won't be on the payroll at that time accruing salary toward that next payday, you probably won't receive one. Like the other poster said, though, it's really just a question of company policy.

Answer 5

Keep qiet, what they know wont hurt them

I once worked at a clothing store, my manager was a total pain. I told her I was leaving 3 weaks in advanced, and wasnt allowed to buy anything durring those two periods with my emplyee discount.

Just go on with your days, and when you want to leave make up an adequate reason as to why, like your grandma died, and you need to be there with her....ahem... just dont tell anyone, I would suggest
Take care, and good luck.

Answer 6

Normally discretionary bonus rules are written to require your being employed at the time that bonuses are given out.

That is not the case with commissions or other earned monies.

Answer 7

The answer depends on the contract between you and your employer, and how year end bonuses are qualified for. I would expect you would not be eliglble, as you have chosen to leave before the end of the year.

Answer 8

That depends on your companies policy. I would say probably not, they are calling the shots here if they say "end of the year" that can be literally taken as December 31.

Answer 9

sure you would be eligible for COBRA despite in case you have been merely lined sooner or later. you does no longer be eligible for ARRA considering the fact that that has now expired and regardless you resigned so as that makes you ineligible as properly.

Answer 10

You would have to ask your boss that question. Only he is the one in a position to make that decision. No one on this board knows who you work for, or what their policies are.
