Is there a policy regarding the annual bonus where you need to be employed at the time of payout? If you give a two-weeks notice now, then still eligble for bonus payment end Feb?

I looked this up in the US Pay Policy and I didn’t see anything explicit calling this out. I would wait until Feb 28th to be sure. That being said, I don’t think Shell HR is nimble enough to pull the rug on your bonus if you gave notice tomorrow.
Quit date should be the first one of a pay period.
Need to be on payroll on Feb 1 to get bonus paid (no matter what your last day is after that - it will just get paid separately). Bonus will be prorated for the days worked in previous year and there might be a minimum days to be met.
Thanks for responses. Can’t wait to start elsewhere!
you are eligible and guaranteed for the full amount if you’ve worked one year from Feb 1 2024 to Feb 1 2025
you can quit on feb 1 and get the bonus
It’s a bonus you earned from FY 2024. It’s yours.
Would stay to make sure.
Two things
- If you resign now you still get the bonus
- You don’t need to give notice, you don’t owe this company sh**. Work your two weeks get paid the last pay check and say 1st of March I won’t be in the office. Trust me by Friday they will have forgotten about you.
