My team has NEVER got a bonus or pay rise ever. I handed my notice in a few days before Christmas, my last working day is Monday 18th January and I get my last pay from my current employer/ job on 22nd January.
A couple of days after I handed my notice in my colleague and I got access (permitted access may I add) to some financial documents for the project I work on and looking at the salary outgoings for the team, they are the same every month UNTIL Jan 2016, where there was an extra £4k of outgoings (4 of us in my team) I said to my colleague ‘Why are January’s salary outgoings higher? She said, ‘I don’t know, I wondered that. Maybe a bonus or something?’ and we both laughed. Turns out, it IS a bonus for the team, of just under a grand each, paid in the January pay packet. For everyone….except me.
Now I understand I am leaving and as of next week, will no longer be a part of the team, however, surely that bonus is for all hard work done last year, not for 3 weeks of hard work done in January? I have worked really hard for this project and am really disappointed that I am missing out on nearly a grand because I handed my notice in a couple of weeks before they announced the Jan bonus.
AIBU? I am brassic at the moment and an already losing a weeks pay as I don't start my new job until 01st Feb (I have 5 days holiday they're paying me so that makes up the other week) I could really do with my bonus
Is it just one of those things that I need to accept and swallow?
