    This is why I never count the bonus as salary. More and more companies are shafting their employees like that.

    My GF’s bonus is tied to something she has no control over, and the company uses the bonus to justify a lower salary. Fuck that noise.

      Exactly. I was hired into one job with a decent salary plus a 10% bonus, paid quarterly. Pretty exciting, right? What I wasn’t told until after I started was that bonuses were on a freeze for the foreseeable future, at least for a year. Next job!

        That’s worst haha. It’s straight up lying.

        I worked at a company that explicitly said that there was no bonus and that the salary was increased to reflect that. They were paying 17k over similar posting, so it was true
