My fiance has been busting her ass for a corporate dental company. She makes salary with a bonus structure that is monthly and yearly. She got a 13% “raise” to her salary, and was elated. The she gets her yearly bonus and it's 1/4 of what last years was, and her monthly bonuses are 1/10 of what they were last year. This amounts to her making 13k less pre tax annually. Gotta love it.
