text: if fired after the end of the fiscal year should you still get your year end bonus? i worked for the same company for 20 years and was let go this year. my term. date was 4/01 and the end of the fiscal year was 3/30, every year you get a year end bonus-- am i entitled to this bonus if i worked to the end of the fiscal year no, you are not entitled to a bonus.  a bonus is just that...a bonus is something the company can give you but do  not have to give you.
