Government work and higher ed = no bonuses.
Gah, this time of year around MM always makes me depressed.

Me! I think? This is my first Christmas working for them, but given that we are a nonprofit I'm not expecting a bonus.

I have only worked at one place that gave out bonuses. And they were so pathetic and insulting, they shouldn't have bothered. One guy got a $12 bonus.
My last company would throw $ into our 401(k) once a year. I guess you could consider it a bonus. It was never around the holidays.
DH's bonus comes in March.

Nope
I'm in publishing and the industry is tanking as it is. MH is a teacher and hasn't gotten a raise in years.

I used to work for a state university. No bonus but we did get 4 hours of informal time off to use in December. I guess that is better than nothing.

No bonus for us either and I'm ok with that.
We used to get a $25 gift card to a local grocery store every year for the holidays but they've scaled way back. This year we got olives. Yes, olives.
