If one person got a bonus as claimed, then others did, too. As the article stated, there probably was some kind of achievement earned, prior to the cutoff announcement of no more bonuses, so some may have earned a bonus level at the cutoff date. Usually, when decisions like this are made there’s a calendar date involved, and as the questionnaire stated the bonuses were based on 10 factors that could have had achievement dates versus a year-round ending performance summation. And we all know how selective people are in assuming facts without thorough research.

That may be true, but telling the truth is always better than letting people find out through back channels.”

From your lips…(ok, fingers). People always find out, and now they’re not just mad at you, they don’t trust you as much anymore.
