Year-End Bonus Watch: Chicago (and a Reminder About L.A.)

So you can’t get a decent horse meat sandwich in the Windy City. How about a decent year-end bonus?
In the comments, please discuss the subject of year-end bonuses for law firm associates in CHICAGO. Topics might include hours cutoffs for hours-based policies, historical patterns in bonus size (e.g. what happened last year), and gossip about what might happen this year.

P.S. In case you missed it, since we posted it at an odd hour, our L.A. bonus thread appears here.
