Bonus

[rod]

I read on the old internet today that an oil exploration company in Houston Texas gave all its employees (all 1,300+) a $100,000 Christmas bonus EACH. Now that's what I call a BONUS. Apparently this same company a few years ago gave everyone a choice of a $50,000 car or $35,000 in cash. Who says the declining oil prices has hurt the oil companies?

Public or Privately held?

Not sure but I'm betting private.

That would be my guess as well

A Minnesota company (Andersen Windows) gives out yearly bonuses based on yearly profits. They have been as high as 6 or 7 thousand per employee and they have a bunch of workers. There have also been the "no bonus" years.

I saw that story and said, that is a lot of money, wonder what the average employee makes there, if that doubles their pay or what.
