Last year in Taiwan, their fresh-out-of-college employees were paid 13-month salary worth of year end bonus.

Some may consider it worthwhile in their stage of life.

Correction: 14-month worth plus additional performance bonus.




Your phrasing is a little unclear. A 16% bonus or 116% bonus?


100% base pay + 116% year end bonus + ??% performance bonus. So total of 226% of base pay plus whatever performance bonus on top.

Edit: it’s customary in Taiwan to measure the tear end bonus in 1 month pay equivalents (8.3% of base pay).


Sorry. It is 12 month salary + 14 month salary as year end bonus + performance-based bonus.
