Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the 2007 bonus was a salary component or an enforceable bonus/gratification due in full
Decisione estratta
The bonus remained an accessory gratification under a discretionary bonus plan, not a variable salary component; full payment was not owed.
Motivazione estratta
A bonus capped at 40% of the annual salary was accessory to the fixed salary. The first year of service and the contractual bonus conditions excluded qualification as variable salary. The employer's assessment of performance was reserved, subject only to good faith.
