ATT and Wells Fargo are giving $1,000 bonouses to employees

Cool! Hope there’s more of those down the line for everyone!

Hopefully all companies will follow suit.  I know I could use some extra.

Too bad all companies don't give out bonuses.

I also heard that both are laying off people right after the first of the year.

This is awesome that companies are helping their own when they get extra.  Maybe FusionCash could get some tax inspired inscentives to give to loyal survey goers.

Wow! this is shocking to me! It is wonderful that they are giving their employees nice bonuses! I have had a very bad experience with AT&T this year. AT&T claimed  I was missing a payment and they shut off my service. I got nothing but the run around even though I had proof from my bank that I had paid the bill. AT&T's customer service is horrible! I would never recommend them to anyone!

Too bad they couldn't pas some kind of savings  down to those who are members. Of course years  ago we quit going to Wells Fargo.  We had a signed contract  with them on buying a mobile  home. and in mid stream  after we had paid about half of it off. They sent us a letter we had to  pay it off or they would repose as they were no longer going to  take payments for mobile homes and we still had  about 4 years left on the contract. didn't do any god that they had signed it also. so we called in a loan on the house we sold and took a loss on it. Paid off the loan on the mobile and took all of the rest of the money out of their bank plus some other investments and moved every thing to a small bank and have not gone back to them since.

As far as I know they will give a 50 stocks to the employee but you need to stay at wells for 2 years.

That is spectacular! Bank of America gave a one thousand dollar bonus to each employee that made under one hundred thousand dollars last Friday. Three companies is a good start. The company that I have contracted with, evenings and weekends, had to put a moratorium on hours. Nobody is allowed to work over eight hours, and overtime is forbidden, except salaried individuals. The legal and accounting departments advised that tax penalties from the new tax plan could adversely affect the company. I generally work between fifteen to eighteen hours on Saturdays and Sundays and manage to hit three to five hours in overtime per week. This will kill up to seventeen hours of pay and nix overtime, on a weekly bonus, for me. I estimate about a twenty five thousand dollar loss in income. I will need to find a third job-maybe I can caddy at Mir A Lago?

it is nice when companies give their employees bonuses

[Sawman214]

all companies would be promoting America if they did this

[ricdsm]

$1,000.00 does not make up the the years of abusing those poor employees.

Did you see where ATT was laying over tens of thousands of it's employees?

[countrygirl12]

Too bad all companies don't give out bonuses.

Most companies cannot afford to give $1000 bonus to ever employee.  And ATT laid off tens of thousands of employees. Look at their stock - ATT ain't worth much.

[haimsterette]

Lucky them! Lowe's (where my partner works) gives out bonuses as well, but we have yet to see exactly how much because she hasn't received hers yet.

When I read this, I thought that's pretty nice, at least some companies are taking care of this workers this holiday season...unlike the other company that I read that sent out notice of layoff!  But guess what?  The company that just laid off 600 workers (with plans of more next year) is AT&T, the same one giving out these bonuses!  Just trying to cover up their bad press from laying off so many right before Christmas.
