This is fabulous and due to our booming economy.

Hype it up all you want but the fact they based it off number of years shows they’re focusing on those people who most likely already make millions annually in upper positions off the backs of the “newer” employees who do the leg work.

Hi 'CNN!' The 'ChristMas Spirit!' Is Contagious W/ A 'Share & Care!' Aroma From From A 'FriendShip Yule Log!' Burning Bright On The 'WorldeStage!' 'Smile's!' 'AmigoDon!'

Wow! I hope to do better for my employees when I become an employer soon. Do help me God

Is life changing

❤️❤️❤️

Thank you president Trump.

Damn! Good for them.

[Rom 6:23 NIV] 23 For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

So cool...hey..hire me please!

That's nice. Too bad it benefits only 198 employees and their families. Not as if 10$ million could go further with helping those who don't have jobs or families or houses this holiday season.

This is a wonderful bit of news for those involved. It got me thinking as well, I realize that I have never worked for a company that offered holiday bonuses to the working man. It’s always been management... wonder who does the work for “Management” hope they enjoy my hard work!

🤪

Yea showed our boss, LoL

we are expecting firm and good handshake for the annual bonus this year 🤷🏻‍♂️

Wow y'all sparing money like that that doesn't go on every where appreciate to be blessed

Call me cynical, but I’m going to be 0% shocked when the headline in 6 months is: ST JOHNS PROPERTIES investigated for tax evasion, money laundering and fraud.

st. John properties thank you for giving this families the best Christmas 🎁

Employer of the Century Award goes to... sana all ba

Imagine if that $10mil went back into the communities where it was earned

RAMS15rule So, where are the billionaires like The Mercer's The Koch's The Pezo's The Steyer's The Gates The Bloomberg s The Waltons The Buffets And so on Are they aware that they can't take their money with them when they look up at the daisy's?

Giving back to the brain behind your success, is very good, the management and board of St. Paul's properties, are very kind hearted, hope the employees will add more value in no distance future, congrats guys

Me: *stops filling out application.'

Good on St.John Properties. Wish more companies would pay substantial much needed bonuses to their employees. Wow! It is news worthy because it never happens. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays.

Some CEOs know the workers deserve most of the money. They should be paid in fair wages - not in random bonusses decided by someone else. Sure, this was a good thing. But it shouldn't be necessary. The workers should already have had the $10m.

That’s thx to the Trump economy of deregulation n tax cuts. You’re welcome 👍🏻🇺🇸👍🏻

Now that is a Christmas Gift!

Thanks to Trump.

I usually get a $25 Amazon gift card here and there, so this was nice to read.

The goal of a Real estate firm and its agents: Lying, raise the prices, faking the demands, make owners richer, large commission fee and finally celebrating for bonuses! What a generous people! The unfair loop! thieves realestateagent lyingformoney

Wow, that is one heck of a Christmas gift!

Stupid people paying too much for homes making this possible! House prices in some markets are 32% inflated. wait for prices to fall

Now that's my kind of boss

Trump's America. KAG

What is this 'bonus' you speak of?

Wow!

They are very generous ...But our Stalin auctioned all posts for local body and after that he proposed to get back after become ruling ...Now ruling alone get share...But only with Tasmac is not enough for him...they are leading with Tasmac production ..!

What a fulfillment! A great human developer and motivator

I’m working for the wrong company

Trump is working

Good on them. Now according to Elizabeth and Bernie, up to 90% of that belongs to the Gov't.

America is booming.

Capitalism at it's best !!!
