This set of steak knives.

What does it matter, did you get one this year? Do you still have your job? I have no job, going to loose my house, I have to pay bills and no new money coming in. What a bunch of complainers! Get out then, stop working there. For those that lost their jobs because of changes we had no choice. STOP your complaining or leave Amgen. OR return your checks that you get and just work there for free. Those of us who lost our jobs are NOT losers but were a number that was drawn. Forget about being a team player, or having values. YOUR A NUMBER on a spreadsheet!

If your number is called you too will feel the ...its not you its just business. If your not at the top of the food chain your a number.

Amen I feel your pain as a RIF'ed person last year as well, to here anyone ask about a bonus amount is very annoying and disrespectful indeed. Come on people do not forget all that happened last year and those prior. Sheesh!

I am a 4 and got 9%

loss some weight, get a hair cut, and by nicer closes - I am sure you can easily be a 5 or 6 if you do those things

as a 5, got 20%

Who cares about 12. What will be awarded in 13 for our work in 12?

A 4...got 12%... Feel very fortunate as others I know only got 10%
