Souk, Seems as if you have already made a choice. If the bonus was that important you would have stayed at a job you did not want to be in anymore. Your new employer has made it worth your while to leave your current situation. Forget about the "bonus" as you are moving t greener pastures.

Funny thing is that the company management expects key employees to work over time (at least 10 hrs/wk) without pay, or what ever it takes to meet cclient deadlines. In a consulting environment, this is like the emplyee giving money away after 40 hrs. The company continues to bill after 40 hours while the employee is dangled a bonus carrot. Performance and deadlines fall on the key employee's shoulders.

This is a way to pay you less! If you were paid overtime your bonus would become part of your overall compensation and they would by law have to go back and issue you a check for the difference of the overtime $ at your new rate. This is a wrong and they know it. They will always say that overtime is not required so the employee willingly works with out compensation because the love the company that much.?! It is better your moving on.
By the way, hows life?
