If you look in your employee handbook, you should find the answer. But at least at the law firms that I know in Southern California, you have to be employed by July or September of that year in order to qualify for the Christmas bonus (and it would be smaller (pro-rated) than someone who had been there the full year).

When I started the job I'm in, I didn't get a bonus the first year as I was only in the job a month as well. BUT... they had a mathematical formula to figure out the bonuses as I work for a Bank.

A law firm may be a bit more lenient. I would guess you may get a small one for your month's work... Hope so.

GOOD luck.

Unlikely you will receive anything, although that is perhaps depending on your contribution to the firm. When I employed staff, if any were in a similar position to you, I would usually give something as a gesture. Bonuses are not easily averaged out since it usually depends on the success of the firm and your contribution to it.

You might get a small bonus like 1/12 of what everyone else is getting. The bonuses at my work range from 7-12% of annual salary.

Whether you get a bonus or not will be down to your companies policy and your bosses discretion.

Think yourself lucky if you get anything - everyone in the relatively small company I work for gets a £40 bonus, which is taxed.

That really depends on your company. I have worked for companies who give out Christmas bounuses and everyone would get the same amount. Then other companies give on the amount of time you have worked for the company, others give on the amount of profit they made that year.

Best is not to depend on one and be really happy if you do get one.

Very, Very, Very unlikely. You may get a token gesture of a hundred quid or so but I wouldn't be that hopeful for more. Some contracts even state that you won't get any bonus in your first year.

You will get a small one for sure, they wouldn't want to discourage someone new to their team. It'll probably be more than you would expect.

Merry Xmas

Daft question. How would anyone know if you are entitled to a bonus. ASK YOUR BOSS
