If you take the time to read the actual contract, there were both
performance-based bonuses and retention-based bonuses. Not a penny was
paid out on the performance side of things, for obvious reasons. The
retention bonus required that the person stay employed through a given
date in order to qualify; nothing more.
While I agree that taking millions for merely showing up for work is
repulsive when your company is sucking the Treasury dry and millions
are suffering because of your actions, it isn't helpful to wrongly
claim that these bonuses had anything to do with performance.
