Wolfson, CEO of Next, the U.K.'s biggest department store chain, gave his entire annual bonus--$3.6 million—to his employees. How uncommon was his gesture? ABC News could not find another example of a CEO of a public company who has done the same in recent years, either in the U.K. or in the U.S. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
