A short excerpt from a YouTube talk (Cameron Herold) arguing against traditional end-of-year bonuses. The speaker cites the science of motivation and favors fair, consistent compensation throughout the year so employees feel valued day-to-day rather than relying on seasonal bonuses.

I do not like doing end of year bonuses because it's Christmas or because it's the holiday season or anything else. It does not make me Scrooge. It makes me understand the science of motivation of people and what's actually going to satisfy people throughout the year. So I like paying people fairly throughout the whole year so they feel good about themselves day to day and that they know that they're being taken care of.
