A Houston energy company has given each of its employees a $100,000 bonus this year. Hilcorp Energy announced last week that it is doling out the six-digit gift to its almost 1,400 workers.
The largest bonus I ever received was $1,500 from Computer Sciences Corporation (CSC) when I put together a winning defense contract. I did receive annual pay raises every year. I received a nice Christmas gift every year when I worked for one national field services firm. Bonuses and holiday gifts are rare in the field services industry … probably, because of the independent contractor status of reps. When working for some mortgage order mills (MOMs), it’s a gift if you just get paid for the work you performed.
there’s nothing about any Field Service companies. This is an energy company. How is that related to the work we do?
