This just in:
Contribution awards at PwC were given out last pay period. Talking to who I perceive as top performers in my group (Tax line of service), the upper range of the bonus was $1k.
Some (many?) at Papa Whiskey Charlie won't be satisfied by such a paltry sum – especially since several have new partner envy – but maybe this may be a little taste of what's to come? Discuss and keep us updated with your firm's comp and bonus news.
UPDATE: As some of you have surmised, and we've subsequently been informed, this bonus range was the start class from this past winter. As you were.
