I did not last only 2 weeks on the job. I was on the job for nearly 14 months when I was informed that my position was being eliminated.
As an update. I was offered a prorated retention bonus for the period I will have been employed over one year (4 months).
In negotiating salary and benefits for a job I accepted in Dec 2000, my future boss promised me a sign-on bonus and a retention bonus to be paid after one full year of employment.
I received the sign-on bonus in Jan 2001. Two weeks ago, I was informed that my position was being eliminated...
