Legal Question in Business Law in Illinois
I just recently took a job with bank of America after leaving a 6 year position with CITI , Today we had a conference call and the Operations manager said that all new employees hired between 01/01/12 to 04/30/12 were being offered An employee retention bonus of A sizeable amount. This excludes all new hire employees hired between 05/01/12 to today 06/22/12, I feel this is discriminatory also he stated that this is not to be spoken about as other departments were not offered the same incentive. My hire date was 05/01/12 and I�m pissed.
What are your thoughts is there legal recourse?

Not all discrimination is illegal. If they were only giving bonuses to men, or Catholics, or Hispanics, you might have a case. Hiring date is not a protected class.
