Report: Apple shares $2500 bonuses with employees following US tax changes

Bloomberg today reports that Apple will be giving most of its global employees an extra bonus as the company plans on repatriating almost $250B of its overseas cash after new US tax laws were passed.

According to unnamed sources, Apple made the announcement today to employees that it would issue $2,500 worth of restricted stock units (RSU’s) following the new tax laws.

This news comes as Apple also made major announcements about plans to invest $350B in the US economy over the next five years, create 20,000+ jobs, build a new campus, and more. Tim Cook made surprise visit the company’s Reno data center for the groundbreaking of a new facility.

Apple expanded its RSU program to all employees to help retain talent back in 2015.
