As much as I like the cbc, the upper management should not be handing out bonuses while workers are being laid off.

Some of these bonuses are part of the performance evaluation they already signed on and whether they met these objectives or not. You can't really go back on an agreement made before the cuts.

That's not how bonuses work.

This move was greedy on the part of management in the CBC and they should better structure their compensation.

That should be good news to the staff being let go. Pretty sure they had agreements too.

Most of those initial job cuts before the funding issue was fixed were vacant positions that were abolished and not fulfilled, which were already budgeted for.
