What is the name of your state? Iowa
I was fired from my job recently and was told at the time of termination that I would receive my year end bonus. Now he tells me that I had to be employed at the time of payout. The handbook states payout if employee is employed at Dec. 31 which I was. I was manager but the handbook doesnt state if different for managment. Does a verbal contract hold up in my case? There was a witness to this conversation if that makes a difference.
