You'll find bonuses were a clever way of not being given as big a raise... i.e giving you 10k bonus is going to cost them far less than a 5k raise with tax etc over the next few years... and doesn't bump up redundancy packages.

i gotta respect our pres, he knows the economy is in the tank and is hustling his ass off and traveling like a mofo to bring in work and make moves.

we were assured at our xmas party there would be no more cuts and the company was safe through 2009. i'm not buying it. i've been redoing the portfolio and updating my reel over the break. i'm preparing myself for the worst, saving as much as possible. luckily the wife has a fine job with the city, so if i am let go we can get by on her salary. my company's position has more to do with inept executives than the economy.

^ That should be everyone's thought ALWAYS, in reality no matter where you work they can always let you go, unless you own the company of course.
Just as bosses are always "looking" to hire the best, you should always be "looking" to be working with the best.
