Going to make a big balls play and ask for a bonus for my performance as an off-cycle in an EB. Does anyone have any advice or guidance as to who I approach and a professional way to do this that is likely to work well?
Thanks.

I am assuming this is an internship and my advice would be to not ask for it. No idea why you would even do it. U will be perceived to be a clown and definitely maintain a legacy at ur bank (maybe other banks as well because it would be a hilarious story)

Dont know where u work that the ppl dont gossip. Though they prob wont gossip with interns

Appreciate it will follow this advice and give it a go. Don’t know why everyone’s so scared to ask for a bonus if they’ve performed well over the off cycle period, the worst they say is literally no and everyone moves on with their life.
Such a “big balls play” requires Founder/CEO/President level obviously.
“Dear Roger/Paul/Peter/Ken/Aryeh,
I hope you are well.
As you must be aware, my addition as an off cycle intern has been an invaluable boon to *insert EB name*.
Despite the terrible deal market, I have gone above and beyond my responsibilities helping our bank stay afloat and bring in revenue. As such, I think it’s only fair that my contribution is recognized.
I would gracefully accept a bonus as reward for my exceptional service.
If you cannot see to this, I’m afraid I will have to take my talents to a competitor bank and help them build and strengthen their franchise instead.
Ciao,
Off cycle intern.”
