It seems that MS paid some very well and others not so much, so your data points can be all over place.

A good rule of thumb is to compare your bonus to your base. If the bonus was below 1x your base, after such a record year, that’s obviously disappointing.

I know a few associates at MS and they told me they got around 1.75x base but said they heard others got below 1x, so it really sounds varied.
