年底獎(jiǎng)金有多少，這是年末員工最關(guān)心的話題。
It's no secret that bonuses -- if they are given out at all -- are likely to be less-than-hoped-for this year. According to Payscale.com, a site that provides salary reports across industries, bonuses dropped an average of 33% across the hard-hit financial sector over the past two years.
今年的獎(jiǎng)金很可能比希望的要少，甚至分文沒(méi)有，這已經(jīng)不是什么秘密了。據(jù)提供各行業(yè)工資報(bào)告的網(wǎng)站Payscale.com的數(shù)據(jù)，過(guò)去兩年來(lái)，遭受重創(chuàng)的金融業(yè)的獎(jiǎng)金平均減少了33%。
But even if you received a small bonus check, you can set yourself up for a more substantial bonus when company financials are better. First off, don't vent too much. It can feel good to commiserate with co-workers, but maintaining a positive attitude at a time when most people are disgruntled will help you stand out.
不過(guò)即便你拿到的獎(jiǎng)金不多，你仍可以為自己在公司財(cái)務(wù)狀況好轉(zhuǎn)時(shí)獲得更豐厚的獎(jiǎng)金做好準(zhǔn)備。首先，不要牢騷滿(mǎn)天。和同病相憐的同事們一起發(fā)發(fā)牢騷可以讓你感覺(jué)好一點(diǎn)，不過(guò)在大部分人都表示不滿(mǎn)的時(shí)候保持一個(gè)積極的態(tài)度，這會(huì)幫助你脫潁而出。
Don't take the dollar amount you receive personally and try to take stock of the company-wide strategy as a way to sort out your disappointment. Joining a chorus of complaining won't change things and can hurt the image your boss has of you.
不要把拿到的獎(jiǎng)金看成是針對(duì)你個(gè)人的，而是嘗試把它視為是整個(gè)公司范圍的戰(zhàn)略，以此消除自己的失望情緒。加入抱怨的行列于事無(wú)補(bǔ)，而且還可能損害你在老板眼中的形像。
'It's career-limiting to come across as dissatisfied,' says Marsha Egan, CEO of Egan Group Inc., a Reading, Pa., professional coaching firm.
賓夕法尼亞州專(zhuān)業(yè)指導(dǎo)公司Egan Group Inc.首席執(zhí)行長(zhǎng)艾根說(shuō)，給人留下不滿(mǎn)的印象會(huì)限制你的職業(yè)發(fā)展。
If you have unanswered questions, talking with your manager about how bonuses were determined is acceptable, but be sure to take a forward-looking approach, says Ms. Egan.
艾根說(shuō)，如果你有什么問(wèn)題不清楚，可以和你的上司談?wù)劒?jiǎng)金是如何決定的，不過(guò)要確保持一種往前看的態(tài)度。
Dwelling in the past is a surefire way to anger your boss, says Don Hurzeler, a retired executive with insurer Zurich North America, who handed out bonuses for more than 30 years. 'When it comes to bonuses, you need to plan for the long run and not the short run,' he says.
