Employees returning bonuses

March
24

Fifteen AIG employees who received some of the largest bonuses have agreed to give them back, New York state Attorney Andrew Cuomo announced.

That’s more than $30 million in payments.

Nine of the 10 people who got the largest payments said they would return them, Cuomo said. Fifteen of the top 20 likewise agreed.

Some of the others have refused; some are still considering it.

“I applaud the employees who are returning the bonuses,” the Associated Press quoted Cuomo. “I think they are being responsive to the American people.”

    They were bullied. dont think for a second they were being magnanimous.

    They dont want to be blacklisted from working again plus the fear of an audit.

    I have worked in this sector for most of my working carreer, it wasnt for the people.
