this kind of thing differ from company to company one what... if bonus is not written in your contract, then they have every right not to give you any bonus at all even if they wanted to.

U must be noob, go ask lau jiao la why go ask boss?!

Every company is different depending on their work year cycle.

My company bonus is usually mid March, I ever heard my fren company (Aust firm) paid on Oct.

U don't have colleagues? ask ur colleagues whom have been there for more than 1 year last year when they got it lah ... and estimate from there.

if u cant wait just sacrifice the bonus and accept the other job offer la.. seeing the way u say abt ur boss, think at most also 1 month bonus.. but u seem like u have not even worked there for a year, so most likely also pro-rated.. not full month

Then you just wait if you die die want the bonus even if you have a better offer elsewhere.

It seems that you can't wait to leave yet you don't want to forego your bonus. Sorry to say, you cannot strike a balance between both.

If it's non contractual chances are you're unlikely to be given the bonus in the 1st place if your boss is refusing to tell you.

Bonus:
- depends on how company perform a.k.a "boss mood".
- usually got mixed up with AWS.
- time-frame is very dependent; typically Dec-May/June.

Bonus rule:
- Never ever ask your boss directly. Boss hate to hear 'bonus' word
- If >1 mth bonus cfm, wait
- If <1 mth bonus cfm, resign
- Ask your colleague when bonus will be distributed.

You like that ask the boss probably already knows you are resigning. I think can kiss your bonus goodbye liao.

Agreed with this one.

Better check if the company has a contractual right to clawback if you tender resignation within a certain period before/after bonus declaration.

Like that your contract is loosely worded and it all depends on your boss. Until money goes into your bank account, there is nothing to stop the payment if boss not happy with your resignation or performance.

check HR policies if any?

request your prospective hirer to wait or give u some time. tell them the truth that u r waiting for the bonus, having worked a full year for it

who knows, hirer may buy u out or give u sign on bonus ... have a figure in mind

if your current job less than 1 year, forget it, most likely nothing for u

Unless he is a must have employee, I will forget him if he can't pay a price to come on board according to my need.
