Gifts can be a write off. Bonuses aren't. They're also taxed on both employer and employee end if done legally.
That being said, I agree 100%. I prefer the cash or Amazon gift card over the physical gift any day. I can handle the after hours party once a year. But more than that should not be an expectation.
A party during work hours is fine. I'm expected to be working and if my boss rather I socialize than work I'm OK with that. But I can see it being an issue for someone who's work may pile up or may cause stress nearing a deadline. I don't have time sensitive work so if I take 2 hours out of my day it won't really set me back


Was gonna post this. There's a reason all these companies are throwing big parties or sending their employees on expensive vacations. They write all of this off, so why not spend it on employee appreciation? They can't do the same for raises. Even bonuses are taxed above $500.

Personally, I'm game for anything that takes place during work hours. Why wouldn't I be? It's like a free period in high school.
