Bo's Contract

Bo ought to be able to feed the kids AND buy new shoes with those numbers. Nice bonuses @ the end of the year at 250k even though we ended up losing the 2 games (B12, and bowl).

 
How would like to know that, if you do your job well, in 4 yrs time; for no other reason than you didn't get fired or leave:

you would recieve a $500,000 bonus?

Damn, I've been at the same job for 7 yrs and am self employed. What I make is what I earn. If, 2 yrs ago I wouldve receved a bonus of 25% of my annual income, just for being there (plus yearly raises!) I would be...excited to stick around.

I hope Bo feels the same way: Win and do well, earn $500,000 EXTRA in 4 yrs.

Obviously Bo is in a different situation, but I had a retention equal to 1 years salary paid out 40/60 at 6 and 12 months, and an additional 10k at 13 months at my last job due to a buyout. It was the worst experience I've ever had - I clashed with the corporate company that bought us, and since they knew I wasn't going to leave they treated me like sh!t for 13 solid months. I almost left after the first payout but stuck it out. My last day was the day after I received the 13 month bonus. Now, 18 months later they've run the company into the ground (as I told them they would) - and let go of almost the entire staff from the orginal purchase (as I told the staff they would). Wouldn't wish it on anyone.

EDIT: also, as an employee you sweat bullets constantly as the payouts near because they have a very good reason ($$$) to find a way to fire you. Ask Mike Leach how great retention bonuses are. :)
