No bonuses, but we used to get "I'm sorry that install sucked, please don't quit" bribes. We got iPads, Best Buy gift cards, and big screen TVs in the past.

Dh an I work for the same company. We each get a $25 grocery store gift card for Thansgiving. Some years we get a full weeks paycheck at Xmas depending on what contracts our company has. We just got a huge government contract and they are talking big bonusesthus year!!
H does most years, but it's based off a formula the company does and not on personal performance. It usually is 2-4% of yearly salary. Found out today to expect a crappy one this year, if anything. They are also pushing raises back 6 months (and H is up for a big one). I usually get some bigger tips around Christmas time from my regulars, but nothing at all big.

Yes. The majority of my income is my below market salary wage. I get a small percentage of sales. When there are big things in the pipeline I try and negotiate different bonuses. It's not consistent from year to year. DH will get a few little ones depending on which way the wind blows.
