Bonus buckets rankings

Relative newbie here - I'm wondering in terms of top/middle/bottom buckets, is there anything in between? Like is it just a very high number for top bucket and then medium comp for middle and that's it? Or is there something like a middle-upper bucket or a bottom-lower bucket.
