ME-----------------NONE!!!!! Have to love my company.

And too top it off, I don't think my building is inviting me and my co-worker to their party.

(I am not an employee of their company, we are a contracted fitness staff, but my former sites I have worked at always invited me to their parties, I even got gifts from them).

Whatever, I think I will go into the city, for my former sites party

I should add that we get this bone thrown to us because we aren't getting raises again.

I get a pretty substantial bonus, but I work a lot of hours and also got a pretty decent promotion this year. I am very lucky in that respect, but my job has it's down-falls too....like everyones...

Re: What kind of Holdiay Bonuses do you get at work????

eh.....we get something but imo not enough.

we also have a company thrown for us which i've heard is nice....i havent been to it yet

we work with alot of vendors and they throw the librarians in the city nice parties during the holidays. I've been to the sky tower (i think ti's called that - it is in the Met Life building) and a few other nice places...the CP Boathouse....so I guess I should not complain.

I just started a new job this week and was told that I will be receiving a decent bonus along with the rest of the company. I was shocked, but glad to hear it

This is my first holiday with the company (i started in march) so I am not sure, but I am guessing NO since it is a start-up company. We are having a Christmas party, and we are closing for a few days and leaving early for a few days around the holidays, paid.

Re: What kind of Holdiay Bonuses do you get at work????

We don't get a holiday bonus...but we also get the the week between xmas and New Year's off...paid without using our vacation time. I will get a bonus with my performance review because of the level I am at, but not everyone gets something at my company, you have to be 'Director or above' in order to qualify.

Like Sage, I get a pretty hefty bonus, however, I can work up to 13 hours a day (plus commute time). I make very good money but I work my butt off for it!!!

I work for a HUGE investment bank/asset management firm so we have really bit parties every year (except for the couple of years the market was in the toilet). This year there are 2 parties (one at Tavern on the Green (investment banking side) and the other is at some fancy hotel (asset management side).

I get the week of between Christmas and New Years off, fully paid w/o taking vacation time.

I would love this as well!

We haven't gotten bonuses at all since the firm hasn't been doing well the last two years. We are hoping for a bonus this year - and that it might be a significant one!
