The situation is that I worked for a company for 5 years. I signed a pay agreement when I came on board. It stated my salary and my bonus structure. I was performing a non invasive surgical procedure called ESWL. It was a tiered bonus structure. First 10 cases pay me X a piece. The next 25 pay Y, etc. No stipulations listed.
I gave 3 weeks notice when I left. My last day was the 22nd of March. So I worked 3 weeks of my last month. I did not receive my last bonus for the 45 cases I performed in March. This is around $4k. For reference, I billed in the neighborhood of 108k for those 45 cases.
When I reached out to my supervisor, he talked to the relevant person and her response was "You need to be employed when bonuses are paid to receive the bonus. He did not finish the month therefore he doesn’t get the bonus for the month."
I see no merit in those statements. I was made aware of no company policy stating this. Bonuses are paid on the 15th of the next month but they could have paid mine on my last check at end of month.
Do I have a leg to stand on here? I feel like they can just say whatever they want. There is no way I would have stayed those 3 weeks for half pay.
