"give workers the incentive to stay in their jobs"
Here is some incentive. Lose your job and you won't be able to find another one. And you save $210M in a bankrupt company.
2009-04-03: Fannie, Freddie worker bonuses total $210M
WASHINGTON – Mortgage finance giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac plan to pay more than $210 million in bonuses through next year to give workers the incentive to stay in their jobs at the government-controlled companies.
The retention awards for more than 7,600 employees were disclosed in a letter from the companies' regulator released Friday by Sen. Charles Grassley of Iowa, the senior Republican on the Senate Finance Committee. The companies paid out nearly $51 million last year, are scheduled to make $146 million in payments this year and $13 million in 2010.
