- literallycancer 10y agoAs another poster mentioned, it makes more sense to measure "annual money in the bank", regardless of how it gets there.
- kasey_junk 10y agoI spent a fair bit of time in finance and it was not uncommon there to have a bonus that was a multiple of your salary. If you quoted just the salary numbers than finance would look like it underpaid where as the opposite is true. In many places bonus isn't even the correct term as a substantial portion of it was guaranteed.
- rb2k_ 10y agoUsually everyone achieves 100% of the bonus. Good performers more than that. It's not part of the 'base', but it's almost a certainty that you'll get it.
