And I get where you are coming from too. I can see that bonuses can be something that people would treat as part of an annual income, and indeed something they rely on each year. So yes, a decrease could impact those people. TBH I wish I hadn't started the thread, maybe I didn't make my thoughts...
My point was that is was such a high profile news story on the BBC. I'm fully aware that companies give bonuses, and I'm not saying they aren't deserved at all. I was just pointing out that it was only in the news because the bonus was only 5%. If they'd said JL staff are getting a 5% pay cut -...
SECOND headline on the BBC website.
Firstly, is this actually a news story worthy of being anywhere near the top of the website?
Secondly, ONLY a 5% bonus? Oh my heart bleeds! Bonus - just looking up in dictionary - oh, it's extra money on top of a salary.
