Houston Oil Company Plans to Give EACH Employee $100,000 This Christmas

Wow…congratulations, please invest it well!

This is nice! After taxes, they’ll still have a nice chunk of change!
Potty Time

This beautiful! I would answer the hell out of the that phone. Gaining opening doors.

That’s a regular ad. It’s OK as long as it doesn’t cover the entire blog. I just clicked the X and the ad closed. It didn’t take me anywhere.

Lucky you *roar*
It’s gone now.
Thanks

With that bonus, I would be their janitor.

emailing my resume to hr@hilCorpEnergy.org right damn now ?

GIT!!

A bonus gets the taxes taken out. ? That’s how mine are

She can get a nice cable one, or cashmere(not heavy but warm).
Yall petty

READ THE WRITE UP

Company secretary Amanda Thompson (pictured above) said the 100K bonus was a “true gift.”

^^^^

She said the bonus was a true gift.

Roses, speak up, when you get a bonus, is it taxed?

And here I thought my former boss was nice handing out $25 in a Christmas card from he & his mother…lol..

I hope the company don’t go broke doing this. Be bankrupt in 5 years

This link says the bonus is taxed at 25%. So they take home $75,000. Still a nice piece of change. http://www.paycheckcity.com/pages/article.php?page=Bonus-Take-Home-2014

I hate chu ??

LOL!

Future Leaders of America Scholarship

In 2011, Hilcorp established the Hilcorp Future Leaders of America Scholarship Fund with the vision of developing future leaders in the math and science fields. This fund provides scholarship opportunities to graduating seniors who excel in the subjects of math and science at selected high schools in Texas, Louisiana and Alaska.

The Hilcorp Future Leaders of America Scholarship Fund has awarded $580,000 in scholarships to 58 deserving students since its inception in 2011.

The Hilcorp Future Leaders scholarship helps those doing full-time undergraduate studies at a recognized university. An initial award of $2,500 is given to young people who meet the criteria; this award is renewable for up to three consecutive years for a total of $10,000. This scholarship is administered by the Greater Houston Community Foundation and its Scholarship Advisory Committee.

What…well go on then Hillcorp

LOL Whatchew over there sipping? Hmmmmm

Ok! My sister was just talking about moving to H Town

Whet? ?

Ummmm….Amanda sweetheart, Kohl’s, Tjmaxx, White house Blackmarket & even Target have nice work clothes for reasonable prices. #Helpful.

Wow..if more companies would consider year end bonuses, they would be surprised how hard people would work..I know I would never miss a day..

SO petty

@DTTS. It not my fault she’s uptop looking hungry & homely. Lol.

Who would leave?

*whispers* I said something about her sweater further down *snickers*
I didn’t Insult her though TUH
OH

Damn near 50% of their bonus will go to the IRS. The oil company gifted that money as a write-off so the recipients will take the tax hit. Smh

I applied earlier last year but never heard anything. For the people who had less than five years of employment with them, their bonus was prorated. But that was still good and a big story here. There’s plenty of oil co that pay out big bonuses here. Maybe not $100k exactly but its good. Bhp is one that I heard that does really big bonuses too. But the folks are huge back stabbers. All of the oil companies I worked for pay bonuses.

Me- “Babe do you want to move to Houston and work for a company that is giving every employee an 100k bonus for Christmas this year? They’ve given out the choice between a 50k car or 35k cash as a bonus in the past. Great incentive.” DF – ” No, I’m good. I’m a tell Eric to try and get a job there though so that deadbeat can start taking care of his daughter and gtf from around me.” Ok…

Every morning I’m walking into work like

LOL smh.

Yes. I do it just to be nice, and I’ve had the same mailman for years. He holds my packages, etc.
I’ve never given over $20 bill (in a card) though.
If I didn’t have a regular mailman, I probably wouldn’t give anything

LOL..

I do. My UPS and FedEx homies. They look out, will even text if I’m not home for a package that needs a signature to find out if they should come back in 20 minutes etc… I always slide them a holiday thank you envelope.

My ass up here missing my annual $500 in cash from my old boss at the paper.

OH, EYE can hardly wait!

Dead code sucka blue

In NC every bonus I had was taxed around 40%. The taxes on bonuses are higher. Their tax bracket for next year will also change. So they should probably save a little bit.

All 1,381 employees of a Houston oil company will receive huge bonus checks in their Christmas stockings this year.

Each employee of Hilcorp Energy Company will receive $100,000 in Christmas bonus money for helping their company make FORTUNE’s 100 Best Companies to Work For list………..

Lol something I would say…I hate Houston but my sis lives there so I HAVE to go…

#truth

Damn just checked…no job openings…and they have offices in a few other states too…

This is why I always took a leave bonus instead of a money bonus. They can’t tax extra leave just at the regular rate.

Bonuses are taxed at a higher rate because the money is considered unearned income. $100, 000 will return $50,000 but the deduction will show on income tax so the return will be good, especially for people who make middle salaries.

No state or local taxes tx Texas

Hey

That 100k will put them in a completely different tax bracket…hope they put something aside to pay what they will owe the IRS

seeing how poor the commodities market is I am very surprised a oil company has bonus money. I would tell all these peeps to put that in a cd and hope for the best

I was talking to my friend about the same thing yesterday before I saw this post. Cost of living is good down there.

I wonder if they’re hiring. ?

I’m getting jipped because my commissions and bonuses are taxed at 35% federally.

So do I, we don’t even get a Christmas card

Me too

Me too, I’ll be doing OT, coming in sick, staying late, everything.

That is truly wonderful , that the people you help get rich , gives back . That is certainly a great incentive for one to want to go to work , and do what they are suppose to do.

Wow… amazing.

That’s amazing!! My goodness…

Wow

LMAO!!!!!!!!!!

No bc they keep leaving expensive gifts at more door when I have a package office… Gated community or not, their are thieves every where…

One of my friends works here. She goes on and on about what a great company it is….

40%? ??

Yep. Call ’em sir and madam while I cleaned, too.

lmao someone always got to ruin the point… lmao “what about taxes” most people would be happy if their job gave them $100 gift card to Walmart…. 100,000 they could have taxed 50% if they needed to .

That’s because you’re a baller. The more you earn the more you’re taxed.

Thank you for the explanation.

I mean as cheap as he was …I was surprised we got THAT much… And I was the manager at a hotel chain..but it had an individual owner from “the middle east” ?..and his all black staff were modern day slaves…hence the reason he is my former boss lol…

Now thats the way ya do it! Good for them! Damn im at the wrong company

Capitalism at its finest. Is uncle Sam coming for his cut.

THIS is how you show appreciation to your employees if you got it like that. It’s easy for them to give more than 100%. Show me the money!!! Kudos to them

Great HR, recruiting and marketing tactic. This article states that some employees will use the money for early retirement. Guess who is hiring? One job is already posted. After reading this article who wouldn’t want to work for this company…genius!
