I have witnessed company bonuses work marvelously well, and I have seen them create great animosity and discord. It is very typical that in this type of environment that the controversy shifts from company vs. employees, to employee vs. employee.

If your CFO handles all communications with your banking relationships, and your Chief Investment Officer handles all of your investor relations, you’re flat out missing the boat.
