See my second-to-last paragraph here: workplace.stackexchange.com/a/20504/31 I'm all for a good work ethic, and I don't like to be bored at work with nothing to do either, but it's just a temporary thing, yes? No big deal in the long run. | |

I mean, by definition if a bonus isn't going to get you to change your mind and stay (i.e. it won't motivate your decision one way or the other), then you're right, there isn't much point in paying it to you. I'm sure you're a good person, but this /is/ business. And hey, if you're leaving I hope you're leaving to a better situation or better pay, in which case I don't think you'll miss the money for long. | |

That means that if I hand in the resignation on the last day of the month I will have to show up at work for 4 hours in April. The reason for handing it late would be "everyone are doing it that way". I might get access cut off to everything (servers etc.) when I hand it early but not being able to do any work for them shouldn't really be mine concern. Thanks and sorry for anonymous account. | |
| Mar 12, 2014 at 23:49 | comment | added | user17174 | I would get the bonus if I handed the resignation after they would already transfered it. The bonus is purely out of the company's good will so even when I was already told I would get it they can pay it whenever they want it or they can not pay it. The managment reasons it's motivational bonus and they have no interest in motivating someone who won't work for them anymore. The bonuses will be paid when we meet the target and the company is so behind on the target it won't happen in months and it will be lower than the diffrence between this and my new salary so there is no reason to wait. | |
