So the rumor about NO BONUS at DPW is true. Has any other firm followed? This sucks. I'm working harder than I did last year, why should I make less money? |

You should make less money this year because your firm's client base will increasingly be sucking air as this recession--or whatever--deepens. From the perspective of a 2nd year at a large firm, I suppose I could complain about the likelihood of not getting a very good bonus despite billing 2200+ hours this year. I focus on the fact that I still have a job, and it makes me feel much better.
