<prompt> Human: Long time lurker, first time poster. Graduated with a Masters degree in Dec 16, and startet working fulltime in January 2017. Quickly felt that the work was not at all what I expected which I have also spoken to my manager about 3 times, so startet speaking to people in my network about openings. Got an offer from a big consulting firm, and accepted. Signed the contract yesterday, really happy. The only thing is that I will start in august 2017, which in itself is not a problem. The problem is that at my current workplace, 20 of my salary is paid as performance based salary i.e. bonus, which means I receive about 2000 every third month. The bonus I earn in April, May and June will be paid in the middle of July. Here comes the problem. My contract states If either of the parties has given notice of termination, the employee is not entitled to any performance based salary during the notice period. I have 4 weeks notice, which I will have to turn in my letter of resignation on the last day of June to be able to quit on the last day of July. If you interpret the clause in my contract, will I lose my bonus? On the one hand I have already earned my bonus for April, May and June, but the way I interpret my contract they can choose to not give me the bonus since I am in the termination period. have also postet in rlegal  <response>: I would talk to the new consulting company and ask to postpone by two weeks or whatever the amount of time so you can get your bonus and let them know the reason. The consulting will probably not care since you are starting in 3 months anyway. It cant hurt to ask.
