I recall that in my dealings with HP in the late 90's, their 'convention' for profit-sharing was around 10% of annual salary.
Personally I think an extra paycheck/year for average or somewhat above-average performance is pretty darn nice! Anything more is gravy for a strong year; anything less means you probably won't be working there for long unless things change...
These days I don't think there is a 'convention'. Maybe there really never was! There will always be the people who get 7 -digit 'bonuses'; those who get 6-digits, exotic cars, houses, etcs.; those who get a juicy (to you and me) 4-5 digits; and those who get a gift cert for a turkey or a fruit basket, and then those who get a pink-slip and an invitation to go on permanent unpaid vacation. It's the way our system and "American Dream" operates.
